Background

How many countries have you visited?
23
I really enjoyed visiting Alberta, Canada and exploring the Rockies. I also got to go to a wolf-dog sanctuary and have close interactions with wolves, which was super cool!
When I first started traveling, I watched tons of YouTube travel vlogs and made very descriptive itineraries. Partly for myself, partly just in case friends and family wanted to follow my footsteps with their travels. However, over time I’ve become more spontaneous with my trips. I like to plan where I am staying and some of the activities and food places I try out, but overall, I like for the trip to be more of a surprise. So on the spectrum, I’d say I fall close to the middle, maybe inching a bit towards the planner side of things.
A location where they speak their native language. Make it a gradual cultural change.
Outlet converters (since they are different in every country), neck pillow (never know when you are going to need to catch up on some z’s, and a power bank to keep your device charged just in case you can’t find outlets.
Window! I like to look out at the clouds and the outline of islands and land when landing and taking off.
Lining up at different popular landmarks for an Instagram photo. I believe there are always other angles to catch and that you can find a competing view somewhere else.
