CURRENT MISSION

Work and travel, mission complete

ABOUT ME

Struggling digital nomad, avid traveler and a geek.

Check out my ig: meutererin

I work online, mostly doing translations, and it allows me to work from anywhere in the world, so I've discovered the beauty of slow travel, staying in one place for a long period of time, discovering personal favorite places and making meaningful connections.

I prefer meeting people over sightseeing, and I believe in learning about culture and history of countries through people rather than books. I love cinema, going to concerts (a bar is always better than a club), trying and cooking new foods, going out, long conversations after 2am with a bottle of wine, curling up with a good book, running, having long leisurely breakfasts, watching movie marathons, playing boardgames.

I have a travel blog that I occasionally update, but usually it's all Instagram.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in the freedom of the open road, and I believe in kindness of strangers.
