About Me:

I first discovered the idea of travel blogging three years ago as I stumbled upon someone’s experiences of travelling through London. Reading it, I felt as if I were there experiencing the trip with him and it inspired me to go out and see the world and create my own travel blog.

Since I often travel alone, I usually take very little with me, which allows me to arrive in a destination and create my itinerary as I go. I like to be as honest as possible with my readers because there’s nothing worse than setting someone up for expectations about a certain location only to find is the complete opposite once you arrive. Travel blogging has given me the inspiration and purpose to visit numerous countries and cities throughout the world and what they say is true – once you get bitten by the travel bug, you can’t imagine a different life.
