My travel style

A seasoned solo traveler and boutique hotel aficionado, I'm the ultimate guide for seeking out the quirky and unconventional. From Tokyo's futuristic slumber pods to Cappadocia's vale hotels, I've got insider knowledge on all the best “off-the-beaten-path" experiences. My favorite travel destinations include Tokyo, Istanbul, New Orleans and Berlin – cities renowned for their eclectic cultures, artistic flair and alternative vibes. I’m for the curious travelers, the ones who read Atlas Obscura, chose the mushroom-infused cocktail “just because” and want to frequent the hippest hangouts with the in-the-know locals.

Favorite hotels

Recently returned from:

  • Hot air balloon riding in Cappadocia. 

  • Previewing NFT art at Art Basel in Miami. 

  • Mastering driving in an SUV on the wrong side to Burning Man, Nevada. 

  • Seeing wild crocodiles in Darwin, Australia.

Dreaming of:

  • Nashville, Tennessee. 

  • Oaxaca, Mexico. 

  • Petra, Jordan. 

  • African Safari.

One thing I can't travel without...

Podcasts.

Two truths, one lie:

  1. I trained at a Muay Thai camp in Chiang Mai. 

  2. My passport was stolen in Berlin. 

  3. I caught the wrong train to a different country.
