About Me

Up until about ten years ago, I had barely even left the state of Ohio, and definitely had never left the country. Since then, I’ve explored over 30 countries, 5 different continents, and countless new cities. I’ve strolled along the Seine in Paris, snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, drank vodka in Russia, and I even lived in South Korea for a while! Now, I live in Las Vegas and I LOVE it.

The time I took my first trip out of the country was when I realized that all I wanted to do was travel, and I wanted to see as much of the world as I possibly could. I realized that it is possible and that I could make my dreams come true. Now, here I am. A much more humble and understanding person. Traveling really helps you to see just how big this world is and how differently many people live.

I absolutely love to travel. It’s my one true passion in life, and I’ve decided to share my passion with the world. I’ve created this blog to share some of my most incredible, humbling, and exciting experiences with the travel community and to connect with other travelers, like you.

If you are an adventurer, an explorer, or you just have a curious heart like mine, then we’ll get along just fine, and this is the blog for you.

Little Things About Me

Passions | Traveling, photography

First Overseas Trip | Ireland – Dublin, the Cliffs of Moher, Giant’s Causeway & Belfast

Favorite City | Athens, Greece

Number One Bucket List Destination | Changes everyday, but right now.. Egypt.

Best Travel Experience | Hawaii. All of it. I went snorkeling in Kauai, sailed the Na Pali Coast, hiked the Haiku Stairs (Stairway to Heaven) on Oahu, watched the sunset in Waikiki, hiked the Grand Canyon of Hawaii in Waimea, and got Lei’d at a Luau. Can’t wait to go back.

Worst Travel Experience | Being followed, harassed, and yelled at by 3 men in India. It’s honestly the only time I’ve ever felt unsafe while traveling.

Favorite Food | Tacos, or anything involving potatoes. Mmm.. carbs.

I have a fluffy fur baby named Max, who is laying on my lap as I type this. I promise I’m only kind of a crazy cat lady.

I am a professional nap taker, french fry eater, and Netflix watcher. When I’m not out exploring, I’m either watching football with the hubby, hitting the gym, or creating something new in the kitchen.

I have been married for a little over two years to my absolute best friend, Matt. We have over six years of traveling together under our belts and we’re both excited to see where this crazy life will take us next.

I’m here to provide value to you. If you ever have questions or comments, I’m more than happy to help. Contact me on social media or send an email! I’m excited to share this journey with you guys, and I thank you so much for following along!

I promise to spark your wanderlust.
