Why I Started This Blog

Hello, fellow travel enthusiasts!

I’m Nada, the passionate traveler behind Destinerary Travel. As a meticulous planner, I understand the common struggle of not having a proper itinerary. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to save you time and enhance your travel experience with thoughtfully crafted itineraries. While traveling to 16 countries as a solo female traveler and with friends, I became at finding hidden gems, underrated restaurants, and local destinations rich in cultural history.

I’ll be honest — I wasn’t always this organized when it came to planning trips. In my first few trips, I’d plan my days on-the-go, only to realize how much time and opportunities I wasted. I discovered so many events and must-see places only after going back home, when I could’ve taken planned ahead instead. I started doing more research before my trips and I fell in love with the process. I would spend hours watching YouTube videos of people that went there, scanning Google Maps for places to go, and searching for local recommendations.

This journey led me to where I am now. I have so many saved lists on Google Maps that I want to organize and share with you! I want people to see the beauty in the different cultures of the world. Looking back, one of my biggest blessings I had was growing up around so many different cultures. As a Egyptian-Canadian who grew up in Saudi Arabia, I went to school with people from all corners of the world, where I was exposed to different languages and cultures. It’s also where I met the closest people to heart, who are now all over the world, including South Korea, Sudan, and Canada. Wanting to visit them got me to start traveling and took me to places I never thought I would go, like North Dakota haha.

I hope you find value in the content I share, and that it inspires your own travels!
