Why do you travel and look for adventures?
I don’t like the daily routine and I love to explore new places. I also believe that traveling opens your mind and you become a better person. It’s a beautiful experience to meet new people and their cultures. I believe that the world is so big and we have to explore it as much as we can.

How do you stay safe when you’re travelling?
When I’m traveling alone I prefer not to go out very late at night. I also choose crowded spots to be safer. I always book hotels close to the attractions I want to visit &I always send my location to my close ones so they’ll know my plans and where I am supposed to be.
What’s the best way to experience a destination like a local?
