SONDER TRAVELLER Sonder is an emotion you feel when with the realisation that each person you meet has a life as rich and intricate as your own.

The Sonder Traveller is all about different ways of travel, valuing family and sustainability, and making personal connections along the way.

Sonder is an emotion you feel when you realise that each person you meet has a life as rich and complex as your own.
At The Sonder Traveller, I cherish connecting with friends, family, and even strangers, because everyone's got their own unique story full of struggles, dreams, and everything in between. It's what inspires us to show compassion and kindness to everyone we meet. And as an industry professional, I'm always striving to go the extra mile and give my community a personalised experience they'll never forget.
I started TST because I want to be an ambassador for sustainable travel and eco-tourism. But it's not just about that - I also love sharing family-friendly travel tips, camping advice, and beautiful travel photography that captures those special memories.
Sustainable tourism is a growing movement that's all about preserving nature, supporting local communities, and fighting climate change. It's all about making the world a better place and bringing people together.

Five of the core values of TST's brand personality are dedication, courage, reliability, gratitude, and compassion.

The Sonder Traveller is family-focused, courageous and positively inspiring readers to experience life by thoroughly engaging in their passions; for me, it's travelling. Gratitude transforms what we have in life into plenty, and I am thankful that through TST, I can purposefully give my readers a look into my personal life and travels; to meet the real me.
Personally, sharing my thoughts and ideas on TST requires courage and strength, demanding good values and celebrating my heritage. But, on the other hand, it encourages me to be proud of every step I take towards reaching my goals as a professional in the travel and tourism industry.
The Sonder Traveller promotes different ways of travel, the importance of family, community-based tourism and sustainable travel, leaving the traveller with a personal connection to the destinations and local communities they visit.
The last thought I want to leave here is that the best memories we can give our children are the commitment to provide them with opportunities to make happy memories. So, my reason and inspiration to accomplish this goal are to travel often with my family. Because when all is said and done, we need trust in the fundamentals of life: faith, family, and friends. They are our safety net for when we fall.
