Hi, I’m Wani

At the age of 21, I set myself a crazy goal of visiting 100 countries before 30.

On the 11th of July 2014, I stepped foot in Kuwait, my 100th country, at the age of 28, pregnant with our first child.

Having been to 149 countries (as of August 2024), I am now experiencing a new form of travel sometimes with 3 kids in tow, if not solo or with a friend or my partner.

Join us on our many adventures as I hope to inspire all who share my love for travel.

Where I am currently
