Welcome to my travel blog!

 

Hey there fellow wanderlusts, my name is Aliza Dworkind, and I am the face behind this travel blog. I have a deep passion for photography, travel, and exploring the great outdoors. My sense of adventure and love for new experiences fuel my desire to pack my bags and set off to new destinations. From a young age, I have always had a strong desire to travel, and in 2022, I graduated from McGill University and took a gap year, setting out on my dream to explore the world.

Combining my love for photography & travel

Ever since I can remember, I’ve had a camera in my hand, ready to capture the world around me. As a photographer, I am drawn to capturing the essence of my surroundings through my lens, telling its unique story. From the locals I connect with at bustling street markets to secluded beaches, every moment and person has a tale to tell, and photography is the best way for me to share these stories.

 

Through my travels, I have met people from all over the world, and many have become lifelong friends. The connections I make with people from different cultures and backgrounds fuel my love for travel and inspire me to continue exploring new destinations.

Apart from photography and travel, I am also passionate about camping, hiking, and exploring the great outdoors. Being in nature makes me feel most inspired and free. Exploring the backcountry is an adventure like no other, and I love the challenge of pushing myself to new limits while discovering hidden gems and breathtaking views.

 

As a travel blogger, I am committed to sharing my experiences with you. Whether you’re looking for the best camping spots, scenic hiking trails, or top travel destinations, I’m here to provide you with knowledge and inspiration to embark on your epic adventures.
