Who and Where is Amy Hang in ___?
My name is Amy Hang, and I am a solo female traveler who occasionally travels with my husband. I have gained the privilege of being a slow traveler and digital nomad, and will always try to get the best deals to stay on a minimal budget. I like to spend at least one (1) month in a place and try to experience life like the locals. Being Chinese-American and engaging with people around the world has been enlightening and eye-opening.
I call Philadelphia, PA, USA, home. Since 2022, Cape Town, South Africa, has been my home away from home with my South African-Indian husband.
This travel blog is a free resource for you to learn about local experiences and get tried-and-tested travel tips, tricks, hacks, and stories! I’m here to help you plan and prepare your trips. I care about slow, sustainable travel and taking the time to learn about local culture, food, people, and history. If that is you, I’m so glad you’re here!
Sincerely,
Amy♡
