I quit my full-time job and went out into the world without a return ticket✨ Now I travel between countries, spending 1-2 months in each. My goal is not only to see the popular places, but also to discover hidden gems, get to know the local culture and experience the uniqueness of each place. I am looking forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with you!
