Welcome to my personal travel blog where I write raw content without thinking if Google will index it or not. Because of full-time blogging and focusing on content that ranks, I feel like having this space to share my thoughts freely creates balance in life.

If you don’t want to know me personally and only want to read content that will be helpful for your solo travel and digital nomad journey, go to my recent blog posts.
