Curiosity, Freedom, Connection & Opening My Mind To What Is Possible

As a kid, I never really got the opportunity to leave North Carolina aside from the occasional trip to the beach and a brief stint in Izmir Turkey (I’ll talk about that one day), travel was never a priority in my family; my parents were young when they had me so I’m sure that those intentions went to other things that benefited me but to my luck, my daddy had this little brown globe that opened my mind to what was possible and the seeds were planted…..DEEP!

I’d spin that globe and take myself on adventures in my bedroom complete with fake accents and all lol (I’m an only child, I’ve always entertained myself)… there was no google, I didn’t have the “coveted set” of encyclopedia britannica (y’all remember them?) but I had a bomb-ass imagination and lots of alone time.

That time in my life set the stage for what you see in my travels now…. Curiosity, Freedom, Connection, and LOTS OF SOLO time. I feel fortunate AF to be able to live out Dreams that have been inside of me since I was a kid.

On this adventure, I got to spend over 3 weeks in different parts of Peru with my sister @glitterexplorer!!! Girl THANK YOU!!
