I am a travel enthusiast, amateur photographer, storyteller, and all-around curious soul with a mind that never switches off. I am always searching for the good in places, people, and fleeting moments, and I find it through the thrill of the journey. I travel to understand who I am. I take photos to remember the days I felt most alive. I write to remind myself that my thoughts are my allies.
This space you have found is not a typical travel blog or photo journal. It is a canvas, and my mind is the brush, always shifting and creating. It is where I give shape to the life I am building, entirely my own, unapologetically creative, and forever evolving.
Life has not always been gentle, especially in my 28 years, but this blog has become my beacon. It shines a light on beauty, honors the profound, and makes space for joy. Whether you are here for stories, snapshots, or a bit of soul-searching, you are welcome.
I graduated from Arizona State University in 2020 with a BA in Global Studies, along with studies in History, Women and Gender Studies, and two years of Italian. My love for culture and human connection has taken me far, from teaching English in Zhongshan, China, to living and working in Rome, Italy, where I fell in love with the rhythm of life there.
Since then, I have returned to Italy several times, spending summers in our family’s countryside home in Poggio Nativo and visiting more than 50 towns across the country. I have also traveled through 26 countries across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, and I am only getting started.
At my core, I am someone who feels deeply and dreams big. My mind moves quickly, sometimes too quickly, but it is always searching for what is next, the next story to tell, the next path to explore, and the next version of myself to meet.
Thank you for being here. Let us wander, wonder, and create something beautiful..
