Hello everyone! I’m Chris and I’m a solo traveler finding myself while traveling the world. Its just “Me MyCamera and i” you might say
I am a 32-year-old Christian guy who was born and raised in sunny south Florida. My whole life I was always interested in seeing the world but never left my home country, United States, and really had only experienced Broward County Florida where I grew up. I never knew what I wanted to do with my life until that one day when my eyes finally were opened.
I really enjoy exploring new countries, cultures, meeting new people and really seeing all the beauty that is in the world. Pretty much down for trying anything new or any adventure. I have been to 19 countries now and have loved them ALL! I really hope my stories and tips will encourage others to travel now and stop putting it off, whether that’s solo or with others. The best time is now and the “perfect time might not ever come
My travel goals on trips;
- Country – Really see and experience where I’m visiting has to offer. Dive into it and see what it’s all about while I’m there. Wether its stunning nature or amazing architecture, I really want to truly EXPERIENCE IT.
- History – I LOVE to see the history behind places. Imagine what it was like there at that time. I mean seriously imagine Rome in its heyday! Walking around that amazing city in its prime or going to the Coliseum and seeing it in all its splendor (I get goosebumps just typing it). Knowing the truth behind Stonehenge and how they built it. Touching something that is so old or being in a place that so many other people have been before me really excites me.
- Food– I think this goes for most everyone but I love tasting and trying all the unique foods from all over the world. Wether that be (sushi, noodles and Kobe beef in Japan), (pizza, pasta and eggplant in Italy), (curry goat in Jamaica) or any of the other amazing dishes I’ve eaten around the world. There are just so many different and amazing foods around the world, and I want to try them ALL!
- People and Culture – I love meeting different people from all over the world and experiencing their culture. I have met a lot of great and friendly people along my travels and made many lasting friendships.
- Thrills and adrenaline rush – Like I said I’m always up for anything new, whether that be jumping out of a plane, white water rafting or diving/spear fishing. I love it all, bring it on.
- Stamp collecting – Might sound stupid but I honestly love getting a new stamp in my passport. I’ve even gone as far to clear immigration in Greece, flip through my passport pages to find a really invisible stamp and walk back to the immigration officer to ask for a better stamp (which I got by the way).
Now of course there are so many other things I enjoy while traveling but these are my main objectives.
I really encourage everyone to travel and experience the world. The main question I always get asked is “Why are you traveling alone?”. My response will always be “I’d rather travel alone than not to travel at all”. The places I’ve been, things I’ve seen and people I’ve met have forever changed my life in such an amazing way. I really feel like I was blind before I traveled and experienced the world.
