I've been traveling since 1997, and I've been fortunate to have amazing adventures in many different places throughout the globe. I'm originally from the Middle East, and I've lived in Malaysia, Turkey, the UAE, and Qatar. When I first arrived in Ecuador over 10 years ago, I was immediately mesmerized by its immaculate and immensely wide array of natural treasures, its unique culture, and the kindness of its people.
