Who is Galesa?

Cheers!

Hi! My name is Sofia and I am from Wales, UK. “Galesa” means Welsh girl in spanish and I chose this name because Spain is my favourite country and because I speak some spanish!

I love to travel (obviously) and do so mostly alone #solofemaletravel. My favorite kind of travel is visiting cities and immersing myself in the culture! I also sometimes travel with my boyfriend Tom from Austria who is great at photography or my friends or my amazing Mum who gave me my love of Spain and different cultures.

I also love to write and I value honesty. You are always going to get my own personal opinion in this blog and thats why you should read it (unless you like lies I guess)!

I am not cool and off the beaten path usually, I’m just a regular person who loves to see the world and immerse myself in the culture. I also am the kind of person who plans out holidays before going to find all of the best things to see and I do love my itineraries, but im always happy to wander of when i see something interesting which sometimes leads to the best adventures.

I also looove food and drinks which may explain why I look so happy with a Czech beer in my hand.

If I’m honest which I said I would be, I sometimes suffer with anxiety and if you know what that’s like you’ll know how nerve wracking travelling can be especially when alone. Of course this can bring obstacles when it comes to travel but I won’t let it get in the way of the things I love doing. I plan on sharing a few tips and experience to anyone else with anxiety who wants to travel. Travelling solo has really changed my life, made me stronger and more confident and I recommend that everyone try it!

I’m writing this travel blog to see where it goes but if you decide to read it, thank you so much. I hope you find some of my posts helpful and please do feel free to leave a comment about you and where you are travelling next.
