About
The last 17 months of my life have been one continuous and chaotic trek through Southeast Asia teaching English to Thai kids, volunteering in the Indonesian jungle and finding friends from all around the world (but mostly Brits and Germans). I am now reminiscing on this experience and curating content to inspire you to book a flight, request PTO and go on the trip that your rich life has earned you — also finally putting my college marketing degree to good use!
Travel style
My friends and family would notably describe me as the "boujee minimalist" who finds a thrill in snagging the best budget-friendly deals, while also treating myself to all the other finer amenities that a trip could not be complete without.
