Just got my two visas approved for my internationa Just got my two visas approved for my international trip in November😬 any guesses where I’m going? It’s the farthest I’ve been except for China! 🙊 These pictures were taken in Milan in 2017 when I lived there for one year…how life has changed since then! Mark my words…I will be a full time travel writer soon!

The sweet balance of home and travel 🥺❤️ The sweet balance of home and travel 🥺❤️ Finding joy and activities to do near my home has been the biggest challenge for me for years. It would be easier to move away or go back to full time travel, but somehow I’m still here…still seeking an answer to finding joy right where I am. Getting closer and closer ❤️
Got a few questions on how to become a travel agen Got a few questions on how to become a travel agent after posting my reel yesterday! 👆🏻 This is how! Get as much travel experience as you can! I prioritized travel in my early 20s though study abroad and Fulbright! I studied abroad 3 times in college — to China, the Czech Republic, and Italy. During that time, I took budget airlines and stayed in dorm hostels to keep my costs down. After graduation, I volunteered in Ukraine (got my housing and food covered) and then completed a Fulbright also in Ukraine! I gained credibility in the field through each of these experiences! Adding 3 more countries to this list in November 🙉
Life isn’t always perfect but that’s the beaut Life isn’t always perfect but that’s the beauty of it. I think back to that 20-year-old girl who was brave enough to live in Italy for a year and who knew she wanted to make a career out of traveling one day. She didn’t know what that path would look like back then but I’d tell her that she should hold on and get ready for the ride! One day we would travel to 32 countries, write a best selling travel book, get two Fulbright awards, and work for a travel agency helping other young people see the world 🌎🥺
Sunsets in Aruba 🧡 This is your sign to take th Sunsets in Aruba 🧡 This is your sign to take that solo trip! I promise it’s worth it once you get past the fear of traveling alone. I almost convinced myself out of this trip since I hadn’t traveled internationally in 2.5 years, let alone traveled by myself! When I was traveling before Covid, I wouldn’t have hesitated. 2.5 years later, I was fearful I wouldn’t remember how I used to do it. Once I arrived in Aruba, all my fear disappeared and I experienced the most beautiful, rewarding trip filled with views like these. #travelreel #solotravel #solofemaletraveler #motivation
