Hi there! 👋 I'm Chloe, one of the two humans who writes guides for this site.
As a young adult, I fell in love with traveling the world and exploring different cultures. Living abroad in Hong Kong, South Africa, and Germany gave me the opportunity to discover all the wonders of the world. My favorite activities while traveling are scuba diving, hiking, and relaxing at the beach.
I'm a certified PADI Advanced Open Water Diver and a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) charterholder.
