I plan too much, travel anyway, and write down what worked.

I'm Minh, a content creator based in Seattle. NomadMinh started because the travel advice I could find came in two flavors: influencer highlight reels and 500-comment forum threads. Neither answered my questions, which were mostly some version of "okay, but what do I do when I land?"

So I write the guides I wanted before my own trips. The exit code to read before you leave the station. Which transit card gives the deposit back. What the heat in Bangkok requires of you. Specific, checkable things, because specifics are what calm an anxious brain down.

The anxious traveler part isn't a bit. I build slack into every airport run and keep my passport in the same jacket pocket every trip. The boring preparation buys the unplanned afternoon.

Most of my work lives in short-form video on Instagram andTikTok. This site is the slower, searchable version: the journal where the details get filed properly.
