Description

MY PHILOSOPHY AND PURPOSE OF TRAVELING

Hello, my name is Zarja Kambic. I am a journalist, traveler and explorer from Slovenia (Europe). I'm traveling around the world already more than 5 years and my main goal is to really in depth explore the countries that I go to, meet locals, live with them and make meaningful connections, to get to know their culture better.

- I want to explore the World, do and learn as many new things as possible and meet as many new interesting people from different cultures as I can! :)

- I'm also a professional journalist and travel blogger and I'm making interviews with interesting people, making videos, taking photos and writing articles about countries that I explore. I'm following my passion of traveling and learning about other cultures and I would like to share this with others.

I love nature, animals, hiking, snorkeling, photography, art and culture, I am hard working, I love to cook (!), I am fun, friendly and very social.
