Hi, I'm Amanda :-)

I've been backpacking in Asia every year since 2007 -- visiting countries like Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, Philippines, Hong Kong and India. I'm happy to say that I'm from the Philippines, but born and raised in Norway.

My last backpacking trip was in Feb and March 2011 -- in India. I was backpacking and doing field work in Kerala for 5 weeks. Then I moved on to north India where I spent 2 more weeks.
