Shanna H.

 

Hi, my name is Shanna and I'm 27 years old. My family calls me the next Marco Polo! Why? Because travelling is not just an interest, travelling is my middle name! I always try to experience a country as locals do. As far as possible offcourse. I eat what they eat, I travel the way they travel and try to learn as much from their language as I can. Because of this I made a lot of friends all over the world and I still keep in touch! Offcourse some preparation before taking off helps a lot. My main goal in life is to have visit every officially registered country on earth! (I'm not even close but I'm working on it)

Photography is another passion of mine. People's faces often tell you more then words can express. Photo's are a great way to communicate even when you have a language barrier. A single photo (or sincere conversation) can make someone's day. At least it makes mine. Have a look at my website when you're curious: http://www.exploringtheworld.eu.

Wonder what I do in between travels and when I'm not out and about with my camera? I run my dad's removal and transportation company and my own temp agency. In my spare time I love to have a drink in the sun on a terrace or stroll along the beach on my bare feet.

Oh I allmost forgot to tell you I love scuba diving. I love it so much that I bought my own gear and I even dive in our "dirty"  brown water. I really don't care as long as I can stick my head under water! LOL.
