Travel Addict currently living and working in Dubai, 30+ countries, sharing adventures and tips on how to book extremely cheap airfares on my blog http://GingerAroundTheWorld.com
How about 6 flights for 250 USD or flying long haul business class for 650 USD?

- Do you travel alone?
Yes, most of my trips I am traveling solo, so much more fun! There are only a few people I can travel with. I love the freedom and the opportunity to meet new people! My trips are also quite intense time wise and not everyone likes to do the same activities. I rather grab a coffee with a local. I have been very lucky to be hosted by expat friends in Dubai on their yearly trip home.

- What's your travel vision?
Moved to Dubai because life in Belgium was getting too boring. Everyone was settling and too tired to do anything, don't even talk about traveling ... 90% of Dubai's population is expat, so they moved countries, this makes it's much easier to meet like minded people. Dubai is also a perfect hub to travel. So even though I am working full time I manage to travel (personal) to around 10 countries each year, using long weekends or traveling to a few countries in a week. I know it's not the usual backpack style but on the other hand I love the overload of experiences in a short time. Over the years I also changed my travel style from sightseeing to connecting more with locals. I met so many cool people the last few years. In Singapore I even met up with an Instagram follower and in Kuwait I met a fellow blogger.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well I traveled to Kuwait in Dec 2016 where i met up with the Corporate Nomads blogger. He took me out with a couch surfing crew and that's when i realized i should connect with CS community here in Dubai and also give CS a try on my next trips.

I always blog about cheap air fares so if I can make my stays cheaper too, that would be great! One of my missions is also to proof that traveling does not have to be expensive.
