Island Girl Since:

Originally Hails From:

Kaj has had the travel itch ever since she was 18 when her parents were on the verge of killing her as she moved to Latin America. With a backpack bigger than her very petite body (not all Dutch people are tall!), she traveled around the continent and came across a whole lot more adventures than her bag could hold.

Bitten and smitten by the travel bug, in 2012 Kaj packed her backpack once again and moved to the world’s least tropical rock: Scotland. Over the next year, she got a university degree and – more importantly – discovered that the weather in Scotland is indeed as bad as they say. Hence, to increase her Vitamin D levels, Kaj and her backpack buddied up for a new adventure and made their way to a somewhat sunnier rock. And that’s how she began her life on Bonaire with her boyfriend, Jeff, and Attila, their guard iguana. You can read more about her adventures on her personal blog.
