A journey to every country

Exploring the World One Country at a Time

Travel guides, stories, and itineraries based on my personal experiences across nearly 150 countries, as I work toward my long-term goal of visiting every country in the world. I focus on independent travel, off-the-beaten-path destinations, and practical advice to help you plan your own adventures.


Hi! I’m Gabriela—an adventurous solo female traveler, blogger, and photographer.

I’m on a mission to visit every country in the world, and so far, I’ve explored around 150 countries. With over 16 years of solo travel experience, including spending years living abroad as a digital nomad, I share destination guides, travel stories, and resources to help you explore the world too. I love discovering off-the-beaten-path destinations, and I’ve shared many of them here on my blog.

If you’d like to follow my journey more in real time, tune into my Instagram, where I regularly share stories as I go, along with my travel photography.

Off-the-beaten-path adventures

Africa Travel

Africa is one of my favorite continents — raw, diverse, and endlessly fascinating. I’ve spent nearly two years of my life exploring the region, including two longer overland journeys: from Cape Town to Cairo, and from Nairobi to Cape Town, along with many other trips in between. Africa has shaped the way I travel more than anywhere else.
