My Gap Year
In 2017, I graduated high school. I had dreams of exploring the world, and was determined to make it happen even if my friends had other plans: so I decided to travel on my own!
I created this blog to provide helpful ressources for fellow travellers, who are looking for guidance, tips and recommendations for their bucketlist travels. Through my blog, you will get:
1) Tips for planning and travelling that can be applied to any trip
2) Thorough guides and itineraries to specific destinations based on my recent and well-researched experiences
3) Solo-travelling content that will inspire and prepare you to embark on your own solo travels!
I am very passionate about making travelling accessible and manageable for everyone who has the desire to do so. I aspire to make your planning proces more efficient, so you can simply focus on having the time of your life whilst away!

A Month In Nepal
After only a year of studying, I was itching to travel like never before. Luckily, one of my dearest friends was in the same situation! We went to Nepal for a month, exploring Katmandu, doing a 12 day trek in the Langtang area, and went jungle-exploring in Chitwan National Park.

When Life Gets In The Way
In the coming years, finances, COVID and other challenges came in the way of my travel dreams. Believe me when I say I thought of travelling the entire time! I managed to satisfy my travel cravings with smaller adventures, visiting London during the fall, exploring Bergen in Norway, taking several trips to Prague and spending two weeks in Portugal.

Roadtrip Through Canada And USA
Before looking into full time jobs, I spend three weeks roadtripping through Canada and parts of USA with my partner. We were lucky enough to see some of the most beautiful parts of west Canada and its national parks, before flying to Toronto and venturing into Michigan, Ohio and Pensylvannia. Our trip ended with a bang in New York City. Let me tell you – three weeks was not enough!
