Kiana Kaulitz

I have always had a passion for traveling and exploring new cultures and meeting up with new people. and I was lucky enough to have turned that passion into a career.
over the past 8 years, I have worked with a variety of travel brands to create compelling social media content that engages and inspires their followers. 
my experience extends beyond social media, I had a chance to work as a content creator and have written blog posts, articles, and even travel guides.
I had a chance to work as a travel guide both at the Iran National Museum and at a travel agency, These opportunities helped me to be more familiar with tourists' experience and their demands.
in addition to my professional experience, I am also an avid traveler myself. always seeking out new adventures and experiences.
one thing that I have learnt from being a traveler and explorer is to always seek out opportunities risky or not, there is always something exciting on the other side!
