Welcome to Adventure Explore Discover! Your destination for cultural travel and all kinds of adventures. You may also be here because you were looking for the travel blog kasiawrites.com. This site is a continuation of that brand with a clearer focus on the type of content I love sharing. I am an adventurer, a cultural traveller and a storyteller who loves seeing the world differently, hence Adventure Explore Discover.

My mission is to inspire cultural travellers to prioritize exploration of ancient ruins, UNESCO World Heritage sites, and vibrant cultural immersion over the fleeting trends set by social media influencers. This blog is for you if you love myths and legends, ancient cultures, museums and architecture. Love outdoor and culinary adventures? We can definitely be friends.

The adventurer behind the blog

Growing up in Toronto, I was surrounded by different cultures and traditions. This exposure significantly shaped my appreciation for cultural travel and made me want to explore the world. I grew up exploring diverse neighbourhoods, tasting food from different countries, and forming friendships with individuals from various backgrounds. This early exposure instilled in me a lifelong passion for adventure travel, pushing the boundaries of my comfort zone and nurturing an insatiable curiosity about the world.

Moving to Italy was a dream come true, and it’s a place that suits me well. Living in Italy means exploring historical sites, indulging in the arts, and immersing myself in the culture and traditions around me. It’s where I can indulge in all kinds of adventures, from exploring ancient sites and stunning landscapes to culinary delights. Italy really is a cultural traveller’s dream destination and one I can never get tired of. It’s also a great base for cultural travel in Europe and the world.

About Adventure Explore Discover

As a cultural traveller, my adventures are motivated by a desire to connect with local communities and learn from their histories. To go beyond the tourist trail and travel deeper. Discover the fascinating stories of the past, legends and tales of lost treasures. Learn about lost civilizations, explore ancient temples, and admire Gothic churches, Medieval fortresses and Baroque palaces. If you love things like this, too, read on.

Visit temples where prayers have been said for ages. Some sites make it into travel guides, while others remain secrets known by few. These places hold stories of those who came before us – stories waiting for you to find them.

Adventure Explore Discover Podcast – coming soon!

Growing up, I loved listening to travel tales and fictional stories even before I could read. There were no podcasts then, so I had to find these stories on the radio, in theatres or by listening to others. That love of storytelling has never left me. As much as I enjoy writing about incredible places, there’s something special about audio storytelling. It allows me to describe a destination, an adventure, or a moment that changed me in a more personal way.

So, if you love history, adventure and discovering the stories behind the places you visit, join me on the Adventure Explore Discover Podcast. Let’s explore the world together, one story at a time.
