I understand that long distance travel is not always accessible to everyone. Personally, I’m not in a position to be taking multiple abroad trips a year or able to go out camping every single weekend. Although that would be great, I do love my husband, the home we’ve created together and my cats. So, balance is necessary in my life. I am not the blogger that will have a new travel destination to report on each week, or long backpacking trips to report constantly. But, I will have budget-friendly travel stories, weekend road trip ideas, and hikes that are local to me and hopefully offer help on how to find some near you! I’m your average nature loving lady with a job and life at home that I plan to maintain, but I also absolutely love finding ways to explore the outdoors and travel the world when possible. I want to share my journey with the hopes that someone else out there may feel inspired to do the same and realize it is possible!
