Greetings! I come from California but have been traveling through South America, currently Europe... and many more places next. I love vegan food, cats, showing off my moves on a dance floor and sharing my travel experience and perspective. I believe travel is for anyone at any budget and am always excited to share and answer questions about how WorldPackers makes that possible.

Great insight. I have been living in China for 7 years and so I’m aware of things that may happen just because I’m black and the experiences are the same. I got some new perspectives watching this video. Thanks for sharing.

Being half black I definitely noticed “the stare” I’m also 6’3 aka 190.5cm so the stare was there. This was a great video to break the ice about traveling from a different view point and much appreciated.
