📸 First things first, you cannot care what people think. I know no one wants to show up on influencers in the wild, but the reality is, getting the shot often means looking silly- especially if you’re a solo traveler!

I don’t really ever talk about this, but…

I have severe anxiety and OCD. I thought for the longest time travel wasn’t for someone like me. I passed on a lot of opportunities because the thought of stepping into situations I was uncomfortable with, or had little control of, was terrifying enough. I mean, how could I possibly travel when it would require me to do so many things that made the anxiety feel worse?

So, how do I travel so much now? Well, it didn’t happen overnight…

I have a question...

Do you travel solo? It can be intimidating, especially if you're a woman. I currently travel more by myself than I do with others. Over the years, I've found what works and what doesn't (and I'm still learning with every trip I take).

This girl is more than one thing and despite what the experts say about niching down, that won’t be happening around here. 😝 I want my little place on the internet to reflect where my heart is at and that’s with travel + photography (all kinds) and storytelling (in many forms).

Hey there! I’m Kelly, and I wear a lot of hats. Literally and figuratively...

You might have read my bio that says I’m a “content creator.” If you’re scratching your head saying, “what does that even mean?” I’m here to spill the tea.
