I remember feeling like it was the most magical thing ever and made me wonder what other extraordinary sights and adventures were out there for me to experience. Since then, I have made it a point to visit at least one new country every year. As a huge foodie, I love being able to explore a destination through its local cuisine and flavours.

At 18 years old, I went on my graduation trip with a bunch of close friends. We travelled to London, Paris and the Netherlands, and it was the first time I travelled without my parents. Although I was initially apprehensive to travel so far on my own, I’m so glad I went - I met amazing people, made lots of new friends and had countless adventures on that trip. This trip really taught me how adrenaline-filled, empowering and liberating the feeling of travel can be!

It is my curiosity about the variations in cultures around the world that inspires me to keep crossing more borders. The next destinations I am looking to cross off my bucket list include Iceland, South Africa, and Morocco.
