The world is my map, and I am here to leave as many footprints as I can.I love travelling and writing about it is the best way to keep the memories intact and easily accessible to reminisce. I call myself a Homebound Traveller because of my strong yet contradicting interests of nurturing an intense wanderlust as well as remaining homebound. So, how do I tackle my wanderlust and my homebound soul? Well, I always travel to return home. I am also a Supply Chain Mangement Graduate, an avid reader, I love cooking, making zentangle patterns, and a pathetic photographer.Follow Resfeber18 to get to know me a little more through my travel experiences.
