From Concrete Jungles to Wild Adventures: The Giselle Story 🌍✨

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Giselle who dreamed of designing cities—but life had other plans. Born in a cramped apartment in a nameless urban sprawl, she grew up watching her single mother work three jobs just to keep the lights on. "You’ll never escape this," the city whispered to her, its towering shadows swallowing her hope. But Giselle? She whispered back: "Watch me."

At 18, she buried herself in textbooks, surviving on instant noodles and sheer grit. By day, she studied urban planning; by night, she danced in dimly lit clubs to pay tuition. The world called her reckless. She called it survival. One winter, she slept in her car after her landlord kicked her out—but she never missed a class.

Then came the breakthrough: a scholarship to study abroad. With a backpack and $200, she landed in Barcelona, where the streets sang instead of suffocated. There, she learned that cities could breathe—could dance. She vowed to build spaces that felt alive, not just functional.

Now? She’s a Urban Planning Specialist by profession, Travel Adventurer by passion, tearing across continents to uncover how cities pulse with soul. From the favelas of Rio to the neon labyrinths of Tokyo, she’s chased stories of resilience—just like hers.

Her DMs are flooded with: "How aren’t you broken?" Darling, she is. But cracks let the light in. 💔🔥

P.S. Yes, that’s a hickey from Bangkok. No, she won’t apologize. 😘
