As someone who loves to travel creating a travel and lifestyle blog seemed like the most natural thing I could do. I thought this would be a great little post not only for myself but also to see what everyone else’s travel inspirations are!
I have been very lucky in my life to have had the opportunity to not only have travelled as much as I have but also to reside in different places. I just turned 22 in May, and I have been to 22 countries! I have lived in 4, beginning at my home country Guatemala. I moved to the United States very young, moved back, and at the age of 11 moved to Dubai. I lived there until I graduated high school, and then proceeded to move by myself to London to pursue my degree. I love going to new places and I can’t wait to hopefully go to some of the places in this bucketlist!
- Albania
- Argentina
- Croatia
- Denmark
EnglandFrance(coming soon)Guatemala- Iceland
- Indonesia
- Iran
- Ireland
Italy- Jordan
Lebanon- Mauritius
- Morocco
- Portugal
- Puerto Rico
- South Africa
- Sri Lanka
- Sweden
Switzerland- Tanzania
United Arab EmiratesWales(coming soon)
Guatemala was one of my favourite countries to have visited!! Iβd love to visit Dubai one day and also want to experience living abroad not just travelling! π

Greece. I want to go to Greece. I envy your location. So many places to see in such close proximity. In the states it isn’t possible to go anywhere on your side of the world for a weekend. So gathering the time and money are a problem, but you are a true inspiration.

I personally just got back from Norway, and as I saw you added Sweden to your list, I definitely think you would absolutely love Norway too! I posted three blogposts on my site with lots of pictures and on YouTube (@Lysbeth Koster : Travel with me | NORWAY) a short video. The fjords and the untouched nature is overwhelming! Hope you like it and might even add Norway to your list as well!

As someone who lived abroad as a child too, i can completely relate to feeling incredibly lucky! Although I am very jealous that you lived in Dubai as that’s a strong contender on my list.

Thank you! I agree, to be quite honest the main reason why I was so lucky to travel was because I lived in Dubai! I met so many people from around the world that enabled me to go visit them and I also had the opportunity to go on school trips as well as trips with my family! Dubai is worth a visit ( I may be a bit bias though ! haha) π xx
