Traveller Hints PROFILE and It is Global Travel Network
Our Mission
Travellerhints: Our goal is to share some beautiful experiences, hopefully, help our fellow travelers on their journey, and even persuade some of you to embark on a new, eye-opening adventure. Also, we have tried to paint a vivid, realistic picture of some places we have traveled to and know a lot about locations. We provide insightful information to make your trip safe and enjoyable. We also hope to convince some of you to travel to some of the lesser-known places that offer a nice change from the overcrowded, over-consumed, mass-touristic locations. Get out there and see some of the World’s natural beauty while it is still somewhat intact!
Benefits of Traveling
Travel can increase your knowledge and cultural understanding, broadening your perspective on many different levels. You will be introduced to various foods, languages, people, multicultural diversity, and unimaginable places. All of these elements will help you make new connections in new environments, boosting creativity and awareness. You will also become more confident and secure in your own identity. Also, sharing many things about yourself with soon-to-be friends and helping to give insight into your way of life. Traveling to a new environment will force you to adapt quickly and break out of your shell. Moving on to another will force you to learn as you go.’ You will be able to navigate cultural paths more respectfully and inter-connectedly.
Most Importantly
Hopefully, you will compare and contrast your country of origin with your new travel destination without cultural bias and prejudice.
Traveling can help you gain a realistic perspective on how things ‘actually’ take shape and how people are, instead of relying on media constructions or stereotypes.
PROFILE Of Travellerhints FUNDER
Sam Profile
The Funder travellerhints, I have visited 86 countries around the World and also lived and worked in six different ones (Sri Lanka, Singapore , Maldives, Australia, Russia, and Japan). My educational background is in Hospitality and Eco-Tourism, which gave me an excellent opportunity to work as a chef. In some of the best World travel destinations as part of global hospitality leading companies. Such as Radisson Hotels, Hideaway Resorts, Voyages, Antarctic Catering, Sodexo & Delaware North). I have also experienced working in various positions within the tourism industry. I spent some time on a super-yacht diving charter boat cruising the stunning Great Barrier Reef.
Our Future
Regarding travel and further exploration, there is no finish line or a final destination. Trust me; many people never stop traveling once a travel bug has bitten them. They would do anything to make moving an essential part of their lives. It is genuinely like a DRUG. But a drug that causes only countless positive side effects. Finally, it can (and probably will) fundamentally change how you see the World and yourself in it.

Mete Ozkan’s Profile
My name is Mete Ozkan. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Music City, Nashville , Tennessee. After completing my Bachelor’s degree, I pursued a degree in teaching. I worked as a part-time teacher and football coach. After sometime, moved to Northern Ireland to complete my Master’s in Political Psychology. I have traveled and spent many months throughout the Americas, Europe, Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and Turkey over 55 countries. The first time I went alone internationally was when I was 13, and I can still remember that journey vividly.
The depth, warmth, and hospitality showed to me created a life-altering experience. That first trip was the launching pad for pursuing athletics and academics in new countries and being open and learning extensively about countries throughout the World. I hope to explore parts of Africa and Central Asia in my future travels with travelers. Type of Travel, backpacking.
Veronica’s Profile
I am a passionate traveler and explorer who never stops. I have lived in Indonesia, traveled a bit around Asia and Europe, and spent a year in Australia, Canada, and Sweden. Both those countries, together with Asia, are my strong passion and forever favorites!
My Education Background
I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in tourism, followed by a vocational background in Media and Communication. To top it all up, I am also soon finishing my Master’s degree in Journalism. (but we all know, the learning process doesn’t end with a certified paper). From professional experience, I definitely see a lot of thanks to work in a massive 5* international hotel chain at Conference&Events Department. However, I am incredibly grateful for all the insights and priceless experience. After all, I realize that I am more of a backpacker kind of person, and adventures are strongly preferred above anything else! Currently blogging about and observing with travellerhints.com.
Michele Profile
For most of the last three years, I have left my native Pacific Northwest in the United States and lived abroad. After completing my Bachelor’s degree in economics, I headed overseas to work towards my MBA in England, which I ultimately finished last year. In addition to writing for travellerhints in my spare time. Also, I work as a football player.
Travelling Life
This career has taken me from America to England, Spain, Iceland, and Spain again. I have lived in four different countries and have traveled extensively throughout the United States and Europe. Spending time living abroad has been one of the most rewarding and challenging experiences. I would certainly recommend it to anyone who gets the chance. There is no better way to broaden your perspectives, learn more about yourself, and learn how to be independent than to separate yourself from your comfort zone. Also, immerse yourself in, and adapt to a foreign culture.
Little Advice
However, if you can’t live abroad, travelling abroad is the next best thing! I know people say it all the time, but once you start moving and seeing the World, you won’t stop! It is intoxicating to hop on a plane or boat or car or train and step off into a whole new world, full of fresh, different, and unique experiences, whether subtle differences or massive cultural differences. It is a big world out there, so I might see as much of it as possible!
Juhi Shrivastava’s Profile
I’m Juhi Shrivastava, a traveler, full-time writer, and blogger by profession because writing is something I love to do. I love traveling, love exploring new things, meeting new people, live my life to the fullest, and yeah, obviously a happy-go-lucky kind of life. I’m an offbeat and adventure travel enthusiast. I don’t travel to the usual destinations and wish to unravel the lesser-known places in India. I have traveled all over India with a few overseas adventures in Asia and Europe.
Cathy Guerrero’s Profile
I’m Cathy Guerrero, who loves to travel, a budget traveler who lives in a beautiful tropical country called the Philippines. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. Yeah, I’m supposed to be a Web Developer. Still, I work as a Google Adwords Consultant or Search Engine Marketing Consultant. But I’m happy with my job knowing that I’ve helped many clients from all over the World. (name it; US, AU, UK, Canada, and other Asian countries) to advertise their businesses and services in Google and other social media platform like Facebook. I was born in a small laidback home town. I was a dreamer, dreaming if I can travel outside my country, since then I’ve been working hard, move to the big city and start to live alone away from my family.
My Travelling Life
I have been to some Asian countries like Vietnam, Cambodia, Macao, Singapore, Hongkong, and Malaysia. And my next plan is I hope to get a visa to visit Europe, the US, Africa, and more awesome countries. My first solo trip was last year, and I enjoyed it a lot; meeting different people, learning their culture, and tasting the local foods was one of the best experiences during my trip. Traveling is learning that you can’t find in any books. You get matured, you failed, you learn a lot and accept the people around you, and not judge them because of their culture and beliefs. After all, it is about acceptance respect. So while I’m still “young,” I’m out there with my bag and going nowhere.
