Benefits of Traveling Solo

Most people think I’m crazy for wanting to travel alone. They always have a ton of questions for me: “Aren’t you scared?” No. Why should I be? “How can you possibly do so much by yourself?” Easy! I plan. I do a great deal of research before I leave for my destination. I don’t have…

Travel Layaway? Yup, that’s a thing!

You know how sometimes there’s something you would like to buy, but you don’t currently have the amount of money you need to make that purchase? You can either wait until you save up enough to get that item, which might be sold out by the time you have the money to get what you wanted…

Let’s Go to T.O.!

So, my summer travel plans are unfolding nicely and I can’t wait to tell you all about it! My birthday was over the weekend on May 28th (yay me!).
