Explorer on a budget

ties: hiking, cycling, or swimming in cold lakes while nobody else does. One, because I love the calmness and to get one with the nature. Two, because it is also a way to have less expenses. This brings me to my next point. The website is called „Explorer on a budget“ because I believe that everyone can afford to travel. And because I am stingy, I don’t like to spend my money on guided tours or luxury articles. The rule of thumb: Time is money. And if you want to spend less money, you are gonna need more time (to research etc.) When you meet me in real life, you will notice that I live a simple but happy life. In general I do not hold judgements against anyone and I am open to new ideas and concepts. I am very fascinated by the Zero Waste lifestyle and thus currently training to become a minimalist. I like raw, vegan food, yet I eat meat now and then. Currently I am still studying. I am an Environmental Engineer with a specialization in geoinformatics - which probably explains why I support green ideas (not to forget my mum’s upbringing). What gave me the idea to start a website is my love for photography. I am a big fan of landscapes, symmetries & close-ups. My motto is: The way is the aim. Don't wait until your destination until you start enjoying, everything along the way is part of the journey. I, for instance, love to go to places the local way (which is the cheaper alternative but also more adventurous). I feel a sense of challenge in places that did not develop a tourism infrastructure yet and where you never know in the morning what the day will bring. This is where my personal adventure time starts and where I feel at ease. It’s my pleasure to have you hear and now I hope you enjoy my site and we will see you hear again :)
