Hi, I’m Ali and I love to travel and take nice photos. Whether that’s on one of my scooters, to street art locations or on holiday adventures worldwide. You can read about it all here!
In 2018 I was diagnosed with breast cancer, which I also write about honestly to try and break the taboos of this subject.

It would really help me if all my visitors who use Booking.com booked their trips by clicking through a link like the one here. It makes no difference to the price you pay, but I get a small commission for you doing so. This helps me pay for the software I use to create the blog and is very much appreciated!
