Travel style

I have lived in three continents and been lucky to have incredible and diverse travel experiences – from solo travel to organizing a 10 person road trip, from staying at the top luxury safari lodges to camping in national parks, from walking the biggest cities to spending quiet time in remote places. I will go anywhere for good food and I am obsessed with travel research and soliciting recommendations from the people who know each destination best. I love to learn about wherever I am and you can always find me peppering a guide or local expert with rapid-fire questions.
