EXPERIENCE THE WORLD OF TRAVEL
Do you dream of exploring the world, connecting with fellow explorers, and diving deep into diverse cultures? This is your chance to break free from the ordinary and dive headfirst into the extraordinary.
Whether you're a seasoned adventurer or just dipping your toes into the travel scene, this trip will be a trip of a lifetime.
Join me as we navigate and backpack through the unknown, where every corner holds the potential for new experiences and unforgettable memories. Where bonds are formed through shared moments that redefine what it means to truly live.
The world is waiting.
I started solo traveling the world when I was 19 years old.
I asked all my friends to come with me but no one said yes... so I went by myself. Since then, I’ve had some of the most beautiful life changing experiences.
I started documenting my travels for fun along the way and then little did I know that diving deeper into social media, photography, and videography would help turn my dreams of traveling into a reality.
Now I travel the world while creating content to help others see the world more. I host group trips so that I can bridge the gap between wishing and doing, making the travel journey a little less scarier to embark on or just take the hassle of travel planning away without scarfing the raw adventures.

ACOMMODATIONS

These are not luxury cottages but rather very basic and traditional beach cottages.We will be camping under the stars at least one of the nights for the true island experience. However, if you don’t like the idea of sharing the cottage room, you can opt to camp :)
