Welcome To CorneredGlobe

My name is Zeid and in April 2015 I finally got the courage to do what I’ve been dreaming about for many years; I quit my job to take a year off and travel. Walking away from everything I knew was the hardest decision of my life. Like many travelers before me, I willingly decided to step into the unknown.

I decided to start this blog as a way to record my experiences; so I’d have something to look back on, to reflect on my journey through life and the world we share. I also hope this site becomes a source of inspiration for others to explore their world, a meaningful travel companion and a place to get tips on traveling smarter and cheaper.
