My name is Zhivko and I am an off beat traveller with affinity for visiting places not commonly visited by tourists. Usually travelling solo, I always look for the different. I am interested in foreign cultures, languages and geo-politics.

ABOUT ME
Born and raised in the sea capital of Bulgaria – Varna, I spent 4 years of my life in Scotland, doing a bachelor's degree in Industrial Design. After graduating, I moved back to work in Bulgaria. Apart from Bulgaria and Scotland, I have lived in China for 5 months.

MY TRAVELS
I am interested in visiting every country in the world, however, I prefer to travel to off the beaten path destinations as I find them more attractive. I don't like travelling to mainstream places such as Paris, London, New York etc. I am mainly interested in Asia, Africa and South America.
