CURRENT MISSION

Live vicariously through other travelers

ABOUT ME

I am a travel writer and PR professional living in Las Vegas. In 2010, I quit my job and went on a solo backpacking adventure through Europe and parts of Africa. For the time being, I am now stationary in Vegas but am planning on heading back out on the road in less than a year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Vegas is a story in it's own. I've backpacked solo for seven months through Europe and parts of Africa. I've lived with elephants. I've taught English in Spain. I've experienced the excitement of an F1 race. And more. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I spent a week volunteering at Elephant Nature Park in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I learned how harmful it is to ride elephants, support circuses and buy elephant paintings.
