I'm an 18-year-old budget backpacker from Finland, who started traveling solo at the age of 17. So far I have visited 17 countries, 9 of which I went to alone. When I travel, I love meeting new people, especially locals. I admit that sometimes I do trust people slightly too easily. This gets me into "what have I gotten myself into" situations from time to time. Luckily I have been safe so far and made some amazing memories, as well as seen places not everyone gets to visit. I will be making map guides of some of my travels, showing where I went and what I did. These will not be perfect itineraries, as I changed plans on the go based on how much I liked a specific place and what kind of transportation was available. So these guides should be used solely on researching places to visit/not visit. Of all of my guides, I will have a free version that shows only the places, and a more detailed version for a few dollars.
