My Story

I never planned to become a traveler or a writer. Five years ago, I was sitting in a gray cubicle, staring at spreadsheets, wondering if this was all there was to life. The answer, it turned out, was a resounding no.

On my 27th birthday, I bought a one-way ticket to Bangkok with nothing but a backpack and a heart full of questions. I had no plan, no itinerary, and honestly, no idea what I was doing. But I had something more important: a burning curiosity to see what existed beyond the life I'd always known.

That journey changed everything. I discovered that the world is far more beautiful, complex, and generous than I'd ever imagined. I learned that home isn't a place— it's a feeling you carry within you. I found that the best stories aren't the ones we read, but the ones we live.

Era Odyssey was born from late-night journal entries in hostel bunks and early morning reflections on mountain peaks. What started as a way to remember my adventures became a way to connect with others who felt the same pull toward the unknown.

When the pandemic hit and travel stopped, I thought my journey was over. Instead, I discovered that adventure doesn't require a passport. It requires presence. That's when Era Mix emerged—a space to explore the journeys we take in our daily lives, the creativity we cultivate, and the wisdom we find in quiet moments.

Today, I split my time between exploring the world and exploring myself. I've learned that both journeys are equally important, equally challenging, and equally beautiful. This blog is my invitation to you: join me on this odyssey through the many eras of our lives.
