Lives in Preston, UK
🌍✨ Hello, I'm Adriana from Hungary! Passionate about exploration and captivated by the lens of my camera, I've been on a journey of discovery since the tender age of 17. While Europe holds a special place in my heart, my adventures have also led me to the enchanting landscapes of Asia. Beyond my love for travel, I'm a language enthusiast speaking Hungarian, English, and Korean, with a current affair with French and Norwegian in the mix. 📚🌟 Balancing Psychology and Adventure in the UK Currently calling the UK home, I'm immersed in the captivating world of Psychology and Counselling. Living alone in a foreign land and navigating solo travels have presented their fair share of challenges, but my background in psychology has been an invaluable compass in overcoming them. I'm on a mission to be more than just a guide; I want to be your supportive companion in navigating the highs and lows of your own journey. 🌏🤝 Creating Authentic Experiences For me, authenticity is the key to unlocking unforgettable travel experiences. Whether strolling through the bustling streets or savoring the serene landscapes, I strive to connect with each destination as a local rather than a mere tourist. From the crack of dawn to the twilight hours, I seize every moment to absorb the essence of the places I visit. 💸💎 Budget-Friendly Adventures with a Dash of Luxury Embarking on adventures with a mindful wallet, I've mastered the art of budget travel without compromising on the richness of experiences. From hidden gems to opulent indulgences, my journey has equipped me with insights into both realms, ensuring a diverse spectrum of travel options for everyone. 🍜🍰 Passionate Foodie and Culinary Creator I not only seek out new landscapes but also savor the unique flavors each destination has to offer. When not on the road, you'll find me in the kitchen, translating my culinary discoveries into delightful creations through cooking and baking.
