About|See The Big World With Ka

Welcome to "See The Big World With Ka".
I’m Ka, a former finance journalist, now an SEO consultant based in the UK.

Years in newsroom editorial work have trained me to research, verify sources and compare data before drawing any conclusions.

In my travel writing, I look beyond whether somewhere is simply “fun”, focusing instead on its historical context, how the city functions, the value for money, and the reality of being there on the ground.

In recent years I have been based in the United Kingdom, living between London and Liverpool.

London has shown me the pace of southern England and the logic of a global city; Liverpool has revealed the very different industrial structure, class dynamics and daily rhythm of the North.

My professional experience in the UK, combined with long-term content projects for European clients, has given me first-hand insights into British and European culture, workplaces and consumer habits.

In the way I travel, I prefer to understand a country through multiple cities, observing differences in scale, daily rhythm and cultural background to build a fuller sense of place.

In the UK, I’ve explored major cities, coastal towns, inland regions and classic routes in stages. I travel the same way in countries such as Italy, Switzerland, Japan, Myanmar and Morocco, using different cities as entry points to understand the diversity within a single destination.

I have now visited more than 170 cities and towns, and each of them could be a story with context.

“See The Big World With Ka” exists to turn these experiences into genuinely useful content:

  • Itineraries, transport, tickets and route planning:practical details you can use directly.
  • History, culture and urban economic structures:understanding why a place looks and operates the way it does.
  • On-the-ground experience and judgement:an honest view of what is worth your time and what you can skip.

If you want to understand why a place is worth your time and money, you will probably find what you need here.

Thank you for being here, and I hope you find inspiration for your next journey. You’re welcome to share your travel stories with me on Instagram.
