My Story

I’ve lived in South Africa and Namibia, called Vienna home while train-trekking throughout Europe, studied in Hangzhou and organized student trips into Yunnan Province, blogged about tacos in Mexico City, surfed waves in Bali and survived an earthquake in the Philippines.

My Travel Style

I am a budget traveler through and through… but one who likes to live well. I like to call it “five-star frugal.” I want to maximize the best bang for my buck. However, sometimes I surrender to the little voice in my head that whispers, "Treat yourself."
