ABOUT ME🙋🏻‍♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these KZbin videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using www.backpackingbananas.com/pr...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

I am from Puerto Escondido, I only hope that it does not become economically inaccessible for people with less money, this good promotion is appreciated, but I hope that it never loses its essence of simplicity. NO large commercial chains or hotel industry and the great environmental impact, Puerto is already close to reaching its limit

start packing your bags, gentrification is coming and a flood of migration from the US

Too late.

Hey, I just quickly wanted to thank you for uploading this video. I decided to go to Puerto because of your video and had the most amazing time of my life there. Coincidentally I met a guy there, who also came to Puerto and stayed at the same hostel, based on your video and your recommendations! He's now my boyfriend and we've been together for almost a year. So so grateful for your channel and specifically this video. Cheers, Sophie

[@BackpackingBananas]

Omg this is the best story 😍🥲 Hope you guys are both doing amazing xxx

This is excellent! Thank you so much, I was doubting in visiting Puerto Escondido and you helped me make a decision to go. Much appreciated!

[@cathyplatin3906]

Thank you so much for the great vlog! Have spent the last 2 Winters in Puerto and will return early next year. Love it there! You covered SO much and did a great job! Good to mention the Benito Juarez mercado and Zicatela mercado for good food options if you’re doing local cooking. We are elders, so didn’t do a lot of La Punta visits, although enjoyed a few spots there. We stayed near Rinconada and then a month down at Costa Cumaná which is beautiful! We love Puerto Angel as well for a good swimming/locals beach...

[@mauricio8778]

Puerto is a great place to make friends from all over the globe. It's my favorite place ever! Just a piece of advice: avoid walking late at night in the streets of La Punta and Carrizalillo, there are way too many wild dogs. Almost every time I tried to save some cab money by walking on the beach from Zicatela to La Punta, I almost got attacked. I found out that it's safer to walk along the main road (AKA the highway).

[@celineklein]

can't wait to travel to Puerto Escondido next month! Thanks for all the travel tips! Amazing
