📍 Bristol, UK (usually somewhere else)

Zoe quit her UX design job at 24 to travel indefinitely — and has been doing so, more or less, ever since. She has slept in well over 200 hostels across Southeast Asia, Central Europe and Latin America and has strong opinions about all of them. Her writing focuses on how to travel properly on a real budget: not the fake kind where someone calls an €80 hotel "affordable".
