GET TO KNOW ME
My love for travel started as a teenager. I
took my first trip alone at sixteen to New
York City and never looked back!
I have traveled across the US, studied
abroad and have lived in two other
countries. I call myself a travel enthusiast
because l love and dabble in all things
travel. Sharing my experiences are the
best parts of what I do, as I'm always
looking to help people explore, face their
fears and make travel easy.
