How I Started
I first gained a passion for exploration by reading tons of travel magazines (favorites: Condé Nast Traveler or Travel+ Leisure) and watching documentaries. Then I would make “mock” travel brochures with the hopes of eventually putting them to use. essentially I would research/plan full vacations… complete with public transit routes/prices, attraction prices/the best times to visit, accommodations, art/food festival schedules, and night life scenes. Needless to say I thought of myself as an amateur travel agent.
Finally, just reading about these regions, cultures, and adventures wasn’t enough. So I signed up for the United chase credit card and started saving my miles! Now, my friends know me as the one who can’t say no to a trip (big or small). Traveling has turned into my passion, continued education, and motivation to look outside my norm.
-All the while looking groovy (of course)-
this blog is an opportunity for me to write down a memoir of sorts (memory of dory the fish over here peeps), with the hopes that you Might gain some rad insights for your own adventuring along the way.
I know I’m no Tolkien, so please be kind.
Enjoy!
