Hey Contiki! My name is Elijah, or Eli for short. I'm a traveler who was born in the Philippines, grew up in the US, and currently living as a nomad and backpacking across the world. I've been going strong since graduating from university back in 2016, and have since learned how to fund my travels by using my travels. I've made waves as the writer and photographer behind The Partying Traveler blog, with over 800,000 readers and 50,000 Instagram followers. I capture the essence of backpacker life, solo travel, and youth travel and use my platform to get people out there and seeing the world however I can. Quite frankly, I believe a collaboration between Contiki and a guy who brands himself as The Partying Traveler is long overdue. I saw on Instagram that you were searching for BIPOC perspectives, and as a Filipino navigating the predominantly white world of backpacking and solo travel, I think I have quite a bit to say!
