Hi, I’m Maruk

..and I’m here sharing stories that take you through my experiences and exploration of landscapes, culture and forming connections with nature and people. 

My desire to explore and adventure in the slow lane has led me to step into the unknown and travel around the globe – full time.

In 2025, I decided to pack up my life in London and so, bought a one way ticket to start my journey in SE Asia. The decision felt natural and aligned to what I was truly aspiring for in my life. Life in London was passing by in a haze, with the daily hustle and keeping up with the city grind I started to lose sight of my own creativity and passions.

I knew this wasn’t what I wanted – I wanted to experience life differently, explore more of the outdoors and get uncomfortable with the unfamiliar.

This life has also sparked my obsession with capturing those very moments on camera, and my objective is to share my journey through photography, writing and other forms that I find myself drawn to.

I have a bone to pick with travel creators (written by a travel creator) by Maruk K.

Travel content on social media has amassed to controversial hooks, commodification and quite frankly disrespect of other cultures, all in the name of churning out engaging content.
