It’s a bold step for me to begin this fundraising, but I truly believe that everything is energy. If my intention is rooted in the highest good for all beings, then may this energy support me as I step into a new beginning.

Hi, I’m Maria — a solo traveler and movement teacher. I am growing up without a home or family to lean on. As a woman who’s spent much of her life traveling alone, I’ve learned that strength isn’t just physical—it’s in the heart, the mind, and the spirit.

Movement—through Dance Fitness, Pilates, and Yoga—has been my anchor. It’s helped me find my purpose, and build the confidence to step into the world with nothing but my passion and a suitcase.

Now, I’m setting off on a mission across Southeast Asia to teach, learn, and serve through Workaway, focused on wellness and education. As a solo traveler, it’s not always easy, but I know the journey is worth every challenge.

Why Southeast Asia?
As an Indonesian, it’s easier for me to travel around Southeast Asia — many countries offer visa on arrival, which helps a lot. The cost of living is affordable, the food is delicious, and I feel close to nature wherever I go. Even though we’re all part of Asia, every place has something unique to teach me. I’m excited to keep learning, connecting with local communities, and giving back wherever I can.

If you resonate with my story and want to support a solo woman traveling, I would be incredibly grateful for your contribution. No donation is too small, and every bit helps me move closer to my mission.

Thank you for being part of this journey!

With L.O.V.E and deep gratitude,

    Zumba KiDS at Timor-Leste
    Volunteering in Timor-Leste by teaching Zumba Kids during a free community event for children. The program aimed to educate kids about proper dental hygiene, including free tooth brushing lessons and check-ups with dentists. As a volunteer, I help bring positive energy and wellness to the community — sometimes even traveling to remote areas. It’s all about giving back, connecting, and discovering the unknown.
