01. Feeling like a Princess at the Royal Palace of Madrid / 02. My early days of street photography / 03. European flea markets are always the best / 04. The first and last bullfight I will ever watch!

It all started when I took my first solo trip to Spain in 2013.

Back in 2013, while working with an after-school program in the heart of San Francisco, California, I said yes to an opportunity that would forever change my life- a summer job with the YMCA in Zaragoza, Spain. The mere thought of embarking on my first international journey to Spain left me filled with excitement! Over the course of 2.5 unforgettable months, I traveled around Spain with a team of Americans and Spaniards teaching children English. We spent time in Madrid, Broto, and Zaragoza. Meeting new people, indulging in culture and new experiences lead me to crave more.

Fast forward to 2014, I began a new adventure with Delta Air Lines, all while wrapping up my final semester of college. What began as a modest plan to travel for a year or two soon turned into a five-year journey, and soon to be a decade!

Having the opportunity to travel the world, meet new people and learn the ins and outs of the travel world has inspired me to help others travel confidently!
