It's Amir. I started traveling since 2016 when I was 26, I know that it's quite late, but it's OK because it could've been started even later 🙂
In the beginning it was only about spending weekends in nature, hiking around the mountains, and meeting a number of friends. Then, I became a backpacker. It helps me step out of my comfort zone, face some of my fears, and even reconsider my values in my life.
I think all trips I had, all people I met, and all rhe stories and memories have gradually changed my personality.

That simple makes me happy.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I came here in France to study a master in a new challenging field, and I passed all the courses :)

It might seem simple, but it was really challenging! The next challenge would be learning French language in 2 years

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa
