Join me on my next Adventure

In April 2026 I will be headed to Peru for two weeks with my friend Sophia! We will be starting our adventure in the capital, Lima. We will then head to Cusco where we’ll spend four days hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu (another wonder of the world checked off my list eekkk). We conclude our adventure in the Amazon Jungle where we will sail down the Amazon River to spot wildlife like we’ve never seen before.

As always, I plan to document everything through instagram posts and plenty of stunning photos.

I can’t wait to share my adventures with you. Whether you’re a seasoned backpacker or considering your first solo trip, I hope my experiences inspire you to explore the world. And remember if nothing else its all for the plot! 

My Europe Journey

In 2023 I had the opportunity to live in Vienna, Austria, and explore nearby countries including Germany, Czech Republic, France, Hungary, Italy, Slovakia, Spain, and the UK. From the stunning landscapes of the Austrian Alps to the rich history of Italy, each destination has had a significant impact on me.

Some memorable moments include hiking the active volcano Mount Etna in Sicily, relaxing on the Spanish beaches of Valencia, and learning about British history at the Tower of London. These experiences have deeply connected me to different cultures and people.

My Asia Journey

In January 2025, I embarked on a two-month solo backpacking adventure across Hong Kong, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam! I joined up with a tour group called G-Adventures which was an amazing experience that allowed me to see so much across these beautiful countries and meet friends from around the world!

In Chiang Mai, Thailand, I had the incredible experience of seeing elephants up close. Vietnam captivated me with its stunning landscapes, from the emerald waters of Ha Long Bay to the lantern-lit charm of Hoi An (before you ask…yes, I got my Tangled moment hehe), as well as its deep history, including the Cu Chi Tunnels from the Vietnam War. In Laos, I kayaked through breathtaking mountain valleys, and in Cambodia, I explored the ancient wonder of Angkor Wat, and I learned about the harrowing realities of the Khmer Rouge regime. Each experience broadened my perspective and deepened my appreciation for the world’s rich history and cultures.
