ABOUT ME

Hi, there! I’m Gaelle and while visiting many of the 70+ countries I've travelled to, I have tried to avoid the crowds of tourists, handrail-flanked walkways and the 'stand here to take your selfie'. From solo travelling in Uzbekistan and marvelling at its intricate Islamic architecture to hiking through the jungle in Panama and enjoying stunning waterfall amphitheatres, all to oneself.

Through this website I endeavour to share this experience and show you another path, the one less travelled—Welcome to my travel diaries, welcome to TheOtherPaths.com
