Hi! I’m Rita
I’m a Portuguese solo female traveller in search of the world’s wildest and most remote corners on a budget. Over the past few years, I’ve hitchhiked across deserts, trekked through remote mountain valleys, and wandered through countries most travellers overlook.
Into the Wild Unknown is a travel blog about independent and off-the-beaten-path travel. Here you’ll find detailed guides for exploring destinations like Central Asia, Caucasus, Pakistan, and the Middle East, without tours, using public transport, travelling on a budget, and discovering places most travellers overlook.
