ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Sera Ertan
Available for hire
I am a travel blogger, yoga teacher, and writer. I am originally Turkish (born in Istanbul) and Canadian. I have been living nomadically for over 7 years, working and adventuring in different corners of the world. I love slow and off the beaten path travel and look for unique local experiences wherever I go. I encourage everyone (and especially younger women) to do the same through my writing.
I have been to 50+ countries, I love nature as much as I love the city.
Here on this platform I will share:
- Guides and maps: Recommendations for restaurants, bars, art galleries/museums in cities I enjoyed visiting.
- How-to guides for remote locations: off the beaten path treks, sail boat hitchhiking, adventure travel.
- Custom travel services: If you have a location in mind and want to speak to a human being who has already been there and get real life advice instead of google-ing it, I am more than happy to share my knowledge and experience.
l hope you find inspiration in my posts and please comment / share / tip if you enjoy them! <3
