I started this blog after realising how much travel advice skips the parts that actually matter.
I write about places as I experience them – the practical realities, the unexpected frustrations, and the moments that don’t photograph well but stay with you. This blog is for solo travellers, budget travellers, and anyone who wants the full picture.
This is anonymous by choice, and honest by design.
