A 91-year-old grandma traveled around the world alone, sharing her journey on Facebook

Elena Erkhova, also known as Baba Lena, is a 91-year-old woman from the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk who traveled to locations you wouldn’t expect a 91-year-old to visit and chronicled her adventures on social media.
The tale became so inspirational since she is a 91-year-old Russian woman who had been traveling despite her old age. And not just within Russia’s borders, but also outside, whether in an exotic area or not.
Unfortunately, Baba Lena died in 2019 at the ripe old age of 91, but she left a legacy of her trips on Facebook.
