About

Hi, thanks for visiting Passport Pages! I was inspired to start this website as there’s not a lot of travel blogs dedicated to vegetarian and vegan travelers as well as ethnic minorities.  And I like sharing nuanced and detailed travel tips such as “What shoes to wear at Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica.” and “How to Select a Safari Camp”. I hope Passport Pages will be a useful resource for you as you plan your travel adventures! Cheers!

About Me
Hi! I’m Samta and have travelled to 6 continents (a little over 40 countries) as a solo backpacker, in groups, and now with my husband. In-between trips, I spend time running my tech startup and of course planning our next trip. I love talking about travel, business, and entrepreneurship. I LOVE backpacks, my DSLR and flat shoes and…I’m kinda addicted to blueberries! 🙂 If there are any topics you’d like to see covered on PassportPages, please send me a note: passportpagesco@gmail.com or use our contact form!

Here are some photos from a few of the places I’ve been fortunate to visit. Too many to include them all, but stick around on the blog and we’ll cover a lot!
