About me

Hello! I’m Catarina, a traveler and amateur photographer.

I’m from Lisbon, Portugal where I spent most of my life… but presently I’m wandering through the world!

My journey started in 2013 and led me to the Asian continent, mainly South-East Asia: Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia and Myanmar (Burma)… but also a bit to North Africa and the Middle East: Iran, Morocco, and Turkey. The far Japan and Taiwan where my most recent destinations, as also the magic country of Myanmar that I have been visiting several times in the last years.

With this blog I share my trips, giving information and tips on how you can travel save and cheaper, based on my own experience, hoping that my experience will help other travelers and works also as an inspiration for the ones that didn’t start yet.

I’m not sure about what makes me keep on traveling but photography is for sure one of the reasons to keep on going, trying to capture the spirit and atmosphere of the places, the local lifestyle and portrait the people.

And the food… food is for sure one of the things that most trills me when I travel. But being vegetarian brings new challenges, and I hope that sharing my experience will make your travel easier and yummier!

Love and Respect

A call for the new, a thrill that drives to movement, a willingness to see other cultures, took me to long-term trips where every moment is a challenge to the imagination and an ongoing romance with life.

Donation…

Sharing is caring… Stepping Out Of Babylon remains free (and without advertisement). It takes me hundreds of hours to research, organize and write… and thousands of euros to sustain.

As I put all my love, effort and ‘free time’ in this project I would love to continue my journey providing all the information to make your trip easier and cheaper… or just inspire you with nice texts and good photos.

If you find any interest and value in what I do, please consider supporting my work with a donation of your choosing, between a cup of coffee and a good dinner.

With Love!
