It’s writing served with a side of jerk chicken, with sounds of reggae rising over the sound of lapping sea waves.

About Me

I travel, I write and I eat. I’m an adventure-obsessed travel writer in Brooklyn with a love of food, culture + color. It is easier to ask me which countries I don’t want to travel to than which ones I do, because elsewhere is my happy place ♥

The Travel Bug
I write about travel because I can’t stop thinking about it. Travel is my joy, my release, my comfort food, my safe place, my passion. It is easier to ask me which countries I don’t want to travel to than which ones I do. Never invite me to travel if you don’t mean it, because I will say yes. I get disproportionately excited about cool travel products and I don’t understand fanny packs. Or socks with sandals.
