My story

I started traveling when I had tricky cruise ticket to the Bahamas. I had to attend a timeshare to get a cruise to Bahamas... And the rest was history.

I have been to 55 cities in 28 countries on 4 continents, most of them since 2013. The trip was mind blowing that made me realize how much life is worth for. I decided to embark on taking trips by digging on travelling and started different scenarios to make it adventurous.

My range of travel is very wide. I have stayed in USD3,000 a night 5-star hotel in Las Vegas to a $20 in a 5-star hostels in Dubai. I have gone from fancy cruise trips to tough backpacking trips on a self-imposed tight budget.

All these were part of what I had planned out as I believe in having a wide range of experience in everything that I do. Only then was I able to tell myself that I have lived life to the fullest and want to continue doing so. One really needs the tough times to appreciate the good ones.

With the experience I have had so far, I've put as part of my life goal to be able to reach triple digits the countries I will have visited before I emigrate to heaven.

"One really needs the tough times to appreciate the good ones."
