In August of 2017, I had the opportunity to visit BC and Alberta, Canada. Two Canadian provinces I had not yet set foot in. My best friend and her partner were living in Vancouver for school so when I found a cheap flight I jumped at the opportunity to explore western Canada with two of…
Every year I write a recap of the best and worst moments of the year. Typically, these are filled with funny travel fails, feel-good moments, and business and travel accomplishments. Usually, I love writing these posts as they are fun to reflect on but this year, my annual summary was a bit harder to…
Motorbikes, cars, and trucks whizzed past me on the dusty roads as I sat in my Cambodian tuktuk on the way to my hostel. It was hot and sticky but the breeze kept me cool and my excitement at being in Cambodia distracted from the heat. I had dreamed of visiting the famous Angkor temples…
In November of 2018, I visited Israel for the first time. I was so excited to go yet I left feeling disappointed and convinced I would never return. So, what happened? Well, in this case, I feel like it was more of what didn’t happen. My first visit to Israel was with another blogger. I…
As many of you know, I was supposed to spend the next 3.5 months travelling through Europe and the Middle East. I was to spend 2.5 weeks in Israel before heading to Turkey with my brother on a 15-day Intrepid Travel adventure. I then had a month to spare before I was going to Greece.…

People, especially women, are working harder to become each other’s cheerleaders and society, in general, is become better (though still far from perfect) at celebrating thick thighs, hip dips, back rolls, and all other…
It’s the end of a decade, and what a decade it’s been! Ten years ago I was 20 years old, in my third year of university, and I’d never even been on a plane. And yet, somehow, here I am at 30 having visited 60 countries and running my own business that allows me to…
*This blog post is written in partnership with booking.com who sponsored my hotel stays in Dublin and Galway for my latest visit to Ireland. “Is this your first time in Ireland?” I smile at Martin, the friendly Doorman to the Temple Bar Inn, my hotel in Dublin for the start of my latest Irish…
Disclaimer: My Santorini Photoshoot was sponsored by Localgrapher “Are you Hannah?” I nodded and smiled nervously as I shook hands with Dimosthenis, my professional photographer for the next hour. Yes, that’s right. I had a photo shoot in Oia, Santorini. Which sounds incredibly extra and not like something I would normally do. I’m not the…
