A solo female traveler that has been based in Amsterdam for 27 years and guiding tours since 2011. I love sharing the beauty of the city of Amsterdam with tourists and I am also a travel blog founder and spent my free time writing about my travel adventures such as solo traveling in Tanzania and Kenya, scuba diving with whale sharks in Thailand or becoming a scuba diving instructor in Bali. Traveling and getting immersed in other cultures, understanding their ways of life and perspectives, is the missing pillar in our educational systems. I believe that traveling should be a culturally immersive experience. Building bridges between countries and cultures while respecting mutual differences does not only benefit the traveler but also the hosting communities.
