This post was originally published on Medium and was featured in the publication The Hustle is Female. When I traveled to Spain last year, I went alone. And because I’m also an introvert, I didn’t make much of an effort to meet people while I was there. This meant that I dd just about everything — you …
I am a shameless Harry Potter nerd. I started reading the books when I was about nine, right when the first movie came out. Since then, I’ve read every book and seen every movie multiple times, stood in line at midnight on more than one occasion to get a book or see a film the …
Now that 2018 is officially here, I think it’s time to start looking ahead and figuring out where I want to travel this year. While I don’t have any concrete plans as of right now, there are some things I would like to do and a couple trips I am working on. I wouldn’t call …
As we hurtle toward 2018, a lot of people are taking the opportunity to reflect on the year we are leaving. I’m not gonna lie, for a lot of people 2017 was a rough year. Is it just me, or does it seem like there is something new and terrible happening every day, so quickly …

Before leaving for Spain I didn’t know quite what to expect. What would a big solo trip like this actually be like? Would it be an absolute disaster and turn me off of the idea of traveling forever? Would it be a life-changing experience that I could one day turn into a best-selling memoir? I …
Spain is full of amazing scenery and views. It felt like every day I would come across something that would leave me going wow wow wow and I don’t ever have to leave, right? I have SO MANY pictures from Spain but I feel like they barely do the place justice! Still, I wanted to …
Recently, I got back from my first solo trip, a 3-week backpacking excursion around Spain. And, guys? It. Was. AWESOME. I definitely have the travel bug now, and I’m already dreaming about when I can get back to Spain. My trip began in Madrid, and, if I had to pick, it was probably my favorite …
I’m going to Spain. I have to keep telling myself that because it still doesn’t seem real. But it is. I’ve booked my flight. I’ve booked accommodations. I’m reading my guidebook (shout out to Rick Steves, heyyy). I’m going to Spain! This is going to be my first international trip (Well, besides Canada. But Canada is …
