Stephanie is a crazy world citizen; roaming the planet full-time since 2014 while hardly spending a dime. Her favourite way of getting around is by hitchhiking (yes, all alone as a woman – no, nothing ever went wrong), her favourite accommodation options are Couchsurfing, house-sitting and camping - blending in with locals. Who needs money?! She loves the culture and art in big cities, but happiest deep down in the core of nature, preferably hiking from dusk till dawn. She’s a passionate vegan foodie, sampling local street food and roaming markets for the freshest bites and tastes! Allergic to tour groups and crowds, she explores this wonderful little world of ours entirely independent and as cheap as possible! Follow her on Instagram at @budgetbucketlist
