About me - the Adventurous Traveler.

Hi! I’m Eva, hiking & climbing fanatic based in Dublin with a passion for independent & adventurous travel and reportage. I found solo traveling the most valuable way of exploring the world. A crucial step was leaving my second job for a one-way ticket destination – backpacking south-east Asia, which trust me wasn’t the easiest decision in the times of normative social influence.
