Pinay. Storyteller. Traveler. Iska.

Hello there! My name is Monica and travel is my therapy. I am on a perpetual journey of self-discovery and loving what I see. After backpacking for two weeks and visiting indigenous tribes in the Philippines, I decided to travel to give faces to different cultures and communities. I have been to 14 countries outside my own. And, I intend to explore more places, forge relationships with local communities, and tell their stories. My mission? To inspire you to love yourself and just give it a go – through my story telling. I write through the lens of an introvert, with anxiety, and a member of the LGBT community.
