    About this blog:

    Hi there! My name is Ana. I am visually impaired and single. But guess what? I love travelling. I love exploring. I love taking pictures, and I love comfort. And this is why I have called this blog the comfy traveller’s diaries. 

    Everybody loves comfort, right? But when I am speaking about comfort in the context of travel, I am speaking about the good kind of comfort; not the kind of comfort that keeps you trapped on your sofa with your hand stuck in a bag of crisps. 

    And this is the entire point of my travel blog: How to leave your mental comfort zone in a comfortable way.

    The kind of comfort I am talking about is probably more aptly described or synonymous with “well-being”. How do you travel well? Especially when you are on your own, and when you aren’t able to drive – and therefore – hire a car.

    Travel should be fun and beautiful and should make you richer in experiences and memories.

    As a (disabled) woman travelling on her own, I have quite a few thoughts about these concepts, as well as past experiences from which I learned in that regard.

    So, when I talk about comfortable travel, I talk about making better choices in the way you travel.

    Many years of solo-travel have taught me that you do not only pay for things in monetary terms. You pay with your time, your peace of mind, your stress and anxiety levels, your safety, your self-esteem, and yes, of course, with cold hard cash.

    With this blog, I want to share tips and experiences on how to travel more comfortably. I want to share thoughts and impressions of my travels. As a solo-traveller, I have a lot of time and opportunity to observe, to learn, and to take in impressions. But being passionate about my travels, I also want to share what I learned.

    I would love to be able to reach an audience that appreciates my travel diary, and I hope you are here to stay for that! 

    Thank you so much,

    Ana.
