Hello! I’m MaSovaida [mah•soh•vey•da], a travel writer, guidebook author, global content specialist, and editorial leader. I’ve lived on three continents and visited more than 55 countries across all seven of them…and always counting.

For more than two decades, I’ve built a career around uncovering the stories that shape us. In past lives, I’ve worked as a dishwasher, a graphic designer, an English teacher to Arabic school children in the Middle East, a clothing store manager and a waitress—all adding to the way I see the world and tell its stories.

My journey has taken me across cultures, through unexpected experiences, and into conversations that push and broaden perspectives. Leaning into the raw, the real, and the deeply human, I believe that storytelling isn’t just about documenting—it’s about disrupting, connecting, and transforming. Let’s create something together!
