Moving to Costa Rica: Why I Left Everything Behind to Start Fresh in the Jungle

I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but… I live in Costa Rica! For real. This move wasn’t planned. At all. I originally came here on a bit of a whim after deciding to shift my travel plans from Europe. I booked a one-way ticket, told myself I’d stay up to a month max, […]

Solo Summer: A New Chapter Begins

A couple of months ago, I had my first ever solo travel experience, completely unplanned. The day before I was set to head back to the U.S. from Bali, I felt a tug to stay. My time wasn’t finished there, and I knew there was more I needed. So instead of heading home with my […]

Why Bali Is the Best Place for Solo Travel as a Female
