I’m Christine, and I’ve been living and working in Oman for five years. During that time, I’ve travelled widely across the country and learned how meaningful experiences grow through people, conversations, and shared moments — and how visitors can access this, too.
I’ve also discovered how to use travel journaling, sketching, and mapping to deepen those encounters, turning fleeting moments into a lasting, personal record. Now, I show independent travellers like you how to access this same creative process.”
