About Me

About Me

I've spent the better part of the last decade pursuing my biggest passion: travel. After visiting 40-odd countries, a stint living abroad, and building a career through travel, I've realized I don't want to live my life on other people's terms.

While this blog focuses on travel and expat life, it's ultimately about my journey to create an unconventional lifestyle centered around travel. (And I hope it inspires you to do the same.) Read more here.

  • Just when I thought #Edinburgh couldn’t get any more beautiful, I walked into Princes Street Gardens when the sun was hitting Ross Fountain like THIS 😭😍 This city is pure magic βœ¨β€οΈπŸ’«
  • Sometimes I forget there are other things to do in #London apart from stuffing my face at food markets πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
  • When you need to escape the shit show that is The Royal Mile in the summer, book a rooftop tour of St Giles. The view isn’t half bad either πŸ˜‰ #Edinburgh
  • Took a jaunt to the Isle of Bute the other week, and the view from The Glenburn Hotel was definitely one of the highlights. Love exploring new corners of #Scotland
  • Never-ending daylight, cotton candy skies at 11pm, the way the city comes alive in the sunshine... I almost forgot how glorious summer is in #Edinburgh. Especially when the weather is actually good (which it has been for almost the entirety of the past month 😱) God I love this city.
  • Spring is my favourite time of year in Edinburgh ❀️ Hoping the cherry blossoms are still blooming when I get there in 10 days! πŸŽ‰πŸŒΈ
  • Just published a new blog post (link in bio) with my travel plans for the rest of the year. Hint: it includes a revisit to Amsterdam and my beloved Edinburgh (of course). βœˆοΈπŸ—Ίβ € .β € Where are you travelling in 2018?!
  • That castle looks good from any angle πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ #Edinburgh
  • When life gives you a disappointing sunset, take a photo of flowers with a bokeh background instead πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ #Edinburgh

Seriously, though..

“The sight of the huge world put mad ideas into me, as if I could wander away, wander forever…” – C.S. Lewis
