What quitting my (dream) career looked like🙈
I was working in my dream career but felt lost. I wanted freedom but knew I needed to work (obviously). I was doing something I was passionate about but still felt like I wasn’t chasing my biggest dreams.
I knew I was playing it safe.
I was also terrified to fully abandon the job that I knew I was good at and had worked so hard for.
But I had to try.
In 2019 I took the plunge to travel full-time. First I lived off of a small amount of savings. I did work trades to travel for cheap / free, stayed in budget hostels, and watched my money slowly dwindle.
When that happened, I realized I was at a crossroads: I could either find a way to support myself & chase my passions, or go back to what I knew was “safe.”
That really lit a fire in me. I started freelance writing, took a video editing course, and found ways to combine my loves - traveling, writing, videography, and storytelling.
My life might not look “traditional,” but I wouldn’t trade what I have for anything.
If this is your dream too, it’s nice to meet you ☺️

Holiday season means NYC holiday markets are the best place for some food thats tasty AF 🤤
This is the viral raclette sandwich by Baked Cheese Haus, which you can find at both the Union Square and Bryant Park holiday markets.
There are also stands with truffle, hot cocoa, donughts, dumplings… you name it.
Some of these stands are definitely pricey but 1) what in NYC isn’t and 2) it’s definitely a treat that’s worth it (to me at least)

How I decide which tourist things are (actually) worth it ⬇️
Sure, some places are iconic, but others are just a tourist trap 🙄
Being from NYC means that crowds & places that are too touristy are usually a big no for me. BUT some of them really are worth it, for anyone.
First, I never go to places just for a photo for social media. Gotta live in the moment first, photos & videos always come second.
Next, if I’m going to a place because I saw it online, I always expect more people IRL. Social media videos are intentionally shot to leave out the crowds.
Third, I try to pick things that are special to me. Sunsets are always top of the list no matter where I am in the world - even just in my day-to-day. So being at the top of NYC at sunset? Yes.
I hadn’t been to @edgenyc yet and while it’s a bit pricy for a view, it really is stunning. Book ahead to get a sunset slot and time your visit to start before the sun actually sets!!

After quitting my job 4.5 years ago to solo travel I can tell you everything you wanna know about it ⬇️
Honestly: I thought I would crash & burn, and that it was a pipe dream. That or I’d come back with my tail between my legs, starting from scratch.
Those things didn’t happen. Things that did?
I learned to travel alone, and started to love it. I started a business, and even started getting paid to travel. I fell in love with new friends all over the world, and learned time and time again how beautiful humans could be.
What questions do you have for me? ⬇️
