Recovering yes-girl turned-entrepreneur, corporate quitter, and determined dreamer with a scuba diving obsession. However you want to spin it, I'm a professional pivoter: a reinvention expert who went from living my dreams as a dolphin trainer to a miserably fancy, soul-sucking desk job to a creative entrepreneur & long term traveler.
I began carving out my little corner of the internet when I started traveling solo in 2021, which expanded the dimensions of my mind and completely transformed my worldview. I realized that the most dangerous risk of all is spending your life not doing what you want on the bet that you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later.
I masterminded my escape from my 9-5 by having a glass of wine (fine, 2!), starting my own business while working full time, saving all my money, selling all my things, & eventually quit my job and never looked back! Follow along for inspiration and information- for the real deal on bucket list destinations, solo travel tips, budget travel hacks, and stories about the rookie mistakes I’ve made (so that you can avoid them)! I hope you’re inspired to just go, because if you want to live a happier, fuller life, you have take chances- lots of them.

I'VE FALLEN SO DEEPLY IN LOVE WITH SO MANY PLACES THAT I’M PERPETUALLY HALF BROKEN-HEARTED BY GOODBYES. I DON'T BELIEVE IN NON-ATTACHMENT. THERE’S NO PASSION IN THAT. I BELIEVE IN BURNING. AND LONGING. AND THAT WE LEAVE TINY PIECES OF OURSELVES IN EVERY PLACE WE’VE EVER LOVED.
