She Finally Started A Travel Blog!
I’ve thought a long time about if and why to start this blog.
At the heart of it, I love to travel! I love to see the corners of the world and pockets of people that make this world different and beautiful and ever changing.
For me, the best part of traveling is seeing the differences in everyday life and the natural beauty of this world. I love knowing what everyone eats for breakfast; I love seeing waves crash on the shore; I love seeing the world’s shared love of music and dancing; I love seeing humanity’s shared love of beauty.
It also forces a fresh perspective. When I travel, I find myself wistfully wishing I could spend more time sitting at cafes on a Saturday morning or walking along a river on a Tuesday night, seeing the reflection of the lights. Then I remember I can!
It’s too easy (at least for me!) to get caught up in the to-do lists and the expectations of everyday life, so much so that we forget to see the beauty and simplicity in our own lives. Stepping outside, and just seeing the world, is all we need to appreciate our slice of home a little more.
I want to help more people find those moments – to help people step outside of the museums and off the guided tours to see the beauty and simplicity of life somewhere that isn’t your own.
Its not easy to jump into a new space, culture, or language, so I hope what I share can make it a little easier for anyone to take that leap themselves.
