I’m Céline - a female full-time solo traveler
Sharing stories of adventures and insights how travel can change the way we see the world and ourselves.

POSTS STORIES REELS

From dodging scooters and trucks in Hanoi to chasing clouds through mountain passes, join me as I take on Vietnam by motorbike - with my best friend from Switzerland and a few solo travelers from around the world, we somehow became the funniest, most chaotic crew. None of us had proper motorbike experience, and with zero plans, we set off anyway. Many flat tires, rainy days and a few unexpected police encounters later, we had a trip we’ll never forget. Expect laughter, chaos, stunning landscapes, and a whole lot of roadside adventure.

In this episode, I share the raw, unscripted reality of hitchhiking through the lush landscapes of Guadeloupe, the butterfly island of the Caribbean. From sleeping on a beach under the stars (and the rain) to relying on the kindness of strangers who opened up their cars and homes to me. It’s a story about spontaneity, vulnerability, and the unexpected generosity that turns simple travel into something unforgettable.

10 Days of Silence
In this episode, I share my raw and honest experience attending a 10-day Vipassana silent meditation retreat in Sri Lanka. From the quiet adjustement to complete silence and early morning wake-ups, to the emotional rollercoaster and unexpected moments of clarity, I dive into what it was really like to disconnect from the world and turn inward. Whether you’re curious about Vipassana, considering it yourself, or just want to hear what happens when you don’t speak for ten days—this one’s for you.

I spent weeks exploring Sri Lanka in my own tuk-tuk — winding through jungle roads, coastal towns, and unexpected moments of magic.

Tune in for a journey full of laughs, lessons, and a whole lot of tuk-tuk charm.

a note to myself to embrace each chapter in life. And a reminder that not every chapter begins with a big change

I spent over three months in Sayulita, immersing myself in the rhythms of a small Mexican surf town. Between working on a permaculture farm, learning to surf, and improving my Spanish, I experienced the raw beauty of slow, intentional travel. This chapter of my journey marked the true beginning of my nomadic life—full of eye-opening moments, deep connections, and personal growth.
