Miss Backpacker
Hi, My name is Mina. Welcome to my travel blog. I love traveling, photography and writing diaries about them. When I was a kid, my dad uses to travel around the world a lot alone for his business.
He brough me lots of souviniers and from that time I started to make a plan to travel around the world. I was 9 but I made a whole plan about countries I want to see and the budget and all details.
I started to follow my dreams when I was 25. My first country to visit was malaysia and after that South-Korea. It was a wonderful journey. At age 26, I moved to Finland to study my second master degree and during my studies I visited various cities in Europe.
In total, I have been to more than 20 countries and 70 cities around the world. In the meantime, I am planning to save my money again and visit more places. Although I didnt have tons of money, I made low-budget plans for my trips. Sometimes I had some difficulties
to cope with some circumstance that resulted from cheap targets but I think it worthed. I prefer to visit more places with minimum budget instead of one big luxury trip. Although my preferences might be different if I was rich. To be concluded, thank you for visiting my blog. I wish my tips were helpful for you.
