Meet Ksenia
I have a passion for discovering new destinations and reimagining familiar ones from fresh perspectives. Based in Manchester, UK, I am happy to explore both local gems and remote corners of the world.
I love delving beneath the surface of each destination, engaging with diverse cultures, sampling global cuisines, and navigating both the urban environments and the great outdoors.
I hope that my experience and insights will inspire you to infuse your life with more travel and adventure.
