One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

8 month solo trip around The Caucuses, Central Asia Turkey, The Middle East, Nepal, SE and East Asia in 2022-2023 some of the highlights include

- My first multi day trek in the Himalayan mountains of Nepal. Pictures just can’t do this justice. One of the most incredible things I’ve ever done!

- The Ha Giang Loop in Vietnam. I learned how to ride a motorcycle during the trip in Vietnam! I went on a 4 day loop in Northern Vietnam. I saw the most incredible sights and met some incredible people.

- Chinese New Year in Malaysia. Experiencing the CNY in Penang was one of the absolute highlights of my trip. I spent it with such amazing people and experiencing a festival like this first hand was an absolute highlight of the trip!
