Iโm traveling frequently and thought why not film a video about how I typically travel. I manage to pack more than 50 useful items in my backpack and want to share tips and trips that I learned in the past 10 years.
Travel for free by smart spending through credit cards:

ABOUT ME
๐โโ๏ธ Iโm Maria, an Engineering Manager at a big tech company and Iโve been coding since I was 13 years old. I love working in tech because building new things and being creative is something that makes me really happy. While on this journey, I realized how lots of questions I receive in 1:1s get repeated a lot so I decided to upload short and simple Q&A videos on TikTok which grew to a small amount of followers. For some questions, I wanted to dive deeper with longer answers which is how this channel started. Thanks for being here โ my goal is to help some people out and make their lives at tech jobs more effective.
