About me

I started my 20s with a six-month trip through Asia — an experience that taught me so much more than I ever expected. Travel wasn’t exactly what I imagined… it turned out to be so much better.

For me, the real joy of travelling comes from exploring wildlife, tasting new cuisines, and connecting with the locals I meet along the way. On this blog, I’ll be sharing the hidden gems I discovered, the lessons I’ve learned, and the beautiful moments that made it all unforgettable.

A big part of my journey — and of Blog It Like Bella — is about celebrating the special places I stayed: cosy guesthouses, family-run homestays, and tucked-away retreats that made me feel at home. I believe in slow, meaningful travel that supports local communities, and I love using this space to shine a light on the people and places that deserve to be seen.
