My name is Makeen. As an avid adventurer, I’m always searching for new and exciting experiences. Trekking and exploring have taken me to some of the most beautiful and remote locations in my region, and I’m eager to discover more. Along the way, I have developed a keen interest in foraging and photography, capturing the beauty of nature in all its forms. I also enjoy horseback riding and fishing, relishing the thrill of the chase and the peace of being out in the wild. As much as I love nature, I am deeply concerned about the environment and am doing my best to preserve it. Through my explorations, during my Sunday treks, I have discovered many fossil sites of the Palaeozoic era and have identified several archaeological sites of great potential. I am also committed to promote culture, heritage, and local cuisine in my region. I created this channel on 25 Nov 2020 to share my Adventures. Thank You 😊
