ABOUT ME
My biggest passion in life is traveling, I did my first backpacking trip when I was 19, completely fell in love with the idea, and couldn’t stop traveling since then.
I’m fascinated by the beauty of this world, and the idea of just taking my backpack and going to the unknown!
Through this amazing community, I got to know so many sides of the world, and met so many amazing people around the world, and having incredible international friendships :)
