Solo Adventure in Mexico City

Wednesday, November 29, 2017

travel 
often
alone

even if it scares you

there are doors in your soul 
only opened in a new land
hidden cities inside yourself

now go explore them

I just got back from a 5 day, solo adventure in Mexico City. This will go down as one of my favorite holidays. I had a lot of family and friends concerned for my safety before I left. And a few that kept checking in on me :) We've all heard horror stories about travel in Mexico. I can assure you that you can definitely have a safe and very fun time in CDMX, even as a solo female traveler. Obviously, you have to keep your wits about you. But hopefully this will encourage you to go and explore on your own! Here is a collection of photos from my trip! Oh, I'm bummed I didn't get to the Frida Kahlo Museum. It was a 3 hour wait to get in! And I did not take near enough photos. I was too busy enjoying myself. I'll call that a win, even for this photographer.

Mexico City is filled with amazing museums, restaurants, shops, and friendly people. It's a short 1.5 hour flight for me so I will most definitely be back!

Wanderlust is a Bitch

Tuesday, July 28, 2015

Today I suck MORE at living in the moment. I'm finding it harder and harder to stay focused in the present. In my head, I'm already eating crepes in Harajuku and frolicking with the deer in Nara.


T-minus one month until my husband and I are eating ramen and hitting up a karaoke bar in Shinjuku. I. AM. STOKED!

It has been my biggest travel dream to explore Japan since I was a teenager. This is going to be one hell of an adventure. You better believe I am bringing my camera.

Looking forward to sharing our adventure with you soon.

Are you heading anywhere exciting this summer/fall? What places give you the biggest wanderlust?
