I solo backpacked to over 20 countries in 2017. Here are my favorite pics from my journey

Hello fellow LGs. My name is Joceline. I’m a solo backpacker.  I quit my job and decided to go on a journey of self discovery. It was only supposed to last a couple months but it’s 2018 and I don’t plan on stopping

 

 

I started my journey in Bangkok. Here at the Temple of Bell - you can hike up many steps to see a beautiful view of the city. Come during sunset and catch this marvelous view  

Bangkok, ThailandBangkok, Thailand

 There are many museums to see in  Thailand- this one has elephants 🙂

From Thailand I headed to Vietnam  where I met the craziest wildest Canadians. I can share photos from Vietnam/Cambodia but I don't want to overload the post.  

Anyways the crazy Canadians invited me on a road trip from Toronto, to Nova Scotia.  Which of course I accepted.

 One night, we decided to have a meal at home and created a Charcuterie board.

 So from Canada, I had to rush back to California, because I had a flight to Ljubljana, Slovenia.  From here I headed to Bosnia, Montenegro, and then to Croatia.  From Croatia I took an over night Ferry to beautiful Italy.

 After Italy  I headed to Germany.

 A friend I made in Slovenia offered to 'host' me (it's a Couch Surfing thing)  in Berlin.  From there I ended up traveling to Slovakia, Hungary, Budapest, Romania, and Moldova.

 The end of my trip consisted of a road trip from Berlin to Munich (Oktoberfest), to Cologne and from there a road trip from Germany to the Netherlands.  We of course had to make stops at Luxembourg and Belgium.

 The best part is, is that my Couch Surfing 'host'  (by this time a good friend) from Berlin came to California and we had to of course stop by Las Vegas!

Anyways, I only posted a few photos from my trip- the rest are all on my Instagram- @jahzzy.  I hope you found this post interesting 😄  I'd love to share more photos from my travels

Those are some awesome photos!!  So jealous of you for just being able to leave everything behind and just go travelling!

All the best for 2018 😉

Good to hear!

I've got a few trips planned before the end of the year, UAE, Japan and Ukraine, so things can't get much better!

I've given you a follow on Instagram as well:) (@hogg.james1) - Some truly stunning photos you have.

With the title of the post my initial guess was your travel to Europe @jahzzy. 🙂 In the post I noticed that you visited at least 3 continents.

 

I like your confident of quitting a job and rush for world tour. Wish you to have further memorable travel ahead. 

 

Pisa in your photo reminded me of feather coin experiment of science. 🙂

 

This is of course a beautiful post by a beautiful local guide. 😃

@JamesHogg Thank you for your sweet comment !!

 

How great!!! I haven’t been to the UAE or Japan... those are my ‘dream’ destinations.  What are your plans for there?

Thank you so much @BishowvijayaP

for your kind comment

 

to be honest- i love Europe but it’s a bit too expensive and can be too touristy for me. This summer I plan on focusing on Eastern Europe/Russia which is more my style. Really excited 😄
