My Story
Travel-obsessed recent graduate living a double life as a biomedical researcher and travel advisor in Raleigh, North Carolina (for now).
My Travel Style
I jump at any opportunity to travel. Whether it is backpacking through SE Asia and hostel hopping, spending 10 days on a catamaran in Croatia, staying at a 5 star hotel ski in/ski out hotel in the Austrian Alps, or even hiking CamelBack in Phoenix, I am down for anything, anywhere! Exploring new cities and attempting to see everything that a city has to offer in just one day is something I pride myself on. However, I equally enjoy a relaxing and luxurious vacation where food and wine are the main priorities of each day.
