I'm a small town girl who grew up in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. I love writing, rock 'n roll music, and, well, traveling of course! I'm an aspiring travel blogger who started traveling internationally later in life at 21. Since then, I've had a major case of the travel bug! So far, I've been to 14 countries and 6 out of 7 continents, with my goal to explore all 7 by 30 (I just have Antarctica left to go!). When I'm not traveling, I enjoy exploring my new home near the seacoast of southern Maine and NH, going to rock concerts, drinking tea, trying new vegan/vegetarian cuisine, and spending time with my lovely husband and our beloved cats, Moose and Heidi.
A safari on the savanna has been on top of my bucket list since I first saw The Lion King as a child. I have also been on a continent conquest to visit all 7 continents by the time I am 30 years old, with only Africa and Antarctica left on my bucket list. I […]

A full-day adventure, this tour visits a medieval […]
Cheap flights from the US to Barcelona were quite prevalent in 2018, which sparked a spontaneous decision to book a week in this beautiful city! With stunning architecture and rich history, I can see why Barcelona is a popular destination among tourists. Here are the highlights of my week in the cosmopolitan capital of Spain’s […]
Of course I have to say, four days in a foreign place is not usually enough time to explore it at its full potential (or for me, hit up half of the things off my bucket list!). However, for us part-time travelers with limited vacation time, sometimes you have to make the most of a […]
It’s that time of year again! A new year means time to start daydreaming about new (and old!) destinations to explore and making those dreams a reality. Here are the top places I’m hoping to make a reality for 2019: Bermuda So far, Bermuda is my only “official” travel plan of 2019. My (new) husband, […]
I feel like I say this every year, but I can’t believe another year has come and gone! 2018 had been my biggest year for traveling yet. While I typically only embark on one international adventure a year, I was fortunate enough to both have the opportunity of taking time off and affordability […]
