Hello There!

I’m Kurt, an accountant who loves to travel the world. My blog, curtisrussel.com, is where I document all my adventures. Like many others, I was born in a society where the idea of success is excelling in academics, getting a stable job, and creating a family. At the back of my mind, I always knew it was not for me.

As A Traveler

I usually travel solo, with friends, or with my nieces. I’m a mid-range traveler with bits and pieces of budget and luxury-style travel. I do splurge a lot on food! 🍜

The Things I Love

I love nature, sunsets, beaches, rollercoasters, temples, and archaeological sites. I am an adventurous eater and I love spicy food. If I’m not basking in the sun or trekking a remote jungle, you can find me in music festivals dancing and singing my heart out. I love cats, turtles, and jellyfish! 🪼

Favorite Places I’ve Been

These three places are currently my favorite destinations in the world. I’m sure, future travels will shake up this list. 😂

My Bucket List

These are the places that I want to visit next! Trekking, soul searching, road trips, vibrant culture, exciting cuisine — you name it! ⏭️

  • Nepal
  • Bhutan
  • Morocco
  • Italy
  • Spain

Why I Travel

I enjoy my job and love the people I work with but it’s not permanent. In the long run, I want to explore the world, connect with different people and cultures, take photos, and write about my experiences. So here I am trying to travel the world one place at a time, and doing my best to fit it into my busy schedule, with a goal to understand myself and the universe. 🪷
