What do you love about travel?

I love to travel because it fuels my sense of adventure and curiosity. Experiencing new cultures and destinations lets me fully immerse myself in the moment. Each journey leaves me with unforgettable memories and a little piece of the world to carry in my heart.

What has been your favorite trip?

My favorite trip has been to Japan, where the warm hospitality and rich culture truly captivated me. I explored vibrant cities like Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, each offering a unique glimpse into Japan’s history and modern life. One of my most unforgettable experiences was visiting Naoshima, an island famous for its stunning art installations and breathtaking scenery. Standing in front of Monet’s Water Lilies there remains a deeply moving memory. Japan’s many shrines and castles are awe inspiring, showcasing the country’s incredible architectural heritage. Every moment felt immersive, and the blend of tradition and innovation stayed with me long after I left. It’s a destination I always recommend for travelers seeking meaning and beauty.
