Hey! I’m Jessica. I’m originally from Arizona, but after high school, I packed up my life and moved with my family all the way to the other side of the country. Now I’m living in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where the beach is basically in my backyard instead of the desert, dust, and scorpions… definitely a different kind of life, but I wouldn’t trade being this close to the ocean.
I’m 25 now, living life with my girlfriend, Kayla, and still trying to figure out exactly where I fit in this whole adulthood thing. I graduated with my bachelor’s degree in psychology and a minor in marine science in December 2023, and ever since then I’ve been somewhere in that weird in-between stage of “okay… what’s next?”
I’ve learned pretty quickly that I don’t think I’m made for one straight, predictable path. These days, my life is a mix of running a pet care business, doing gig work, creating content, and traveling whenever we get the chance. I’m also constantly thinking about what I want my future to look like and finding some new idea, hobby, skill, or adventure to throw myself into.
And honestly, that’s a huge reason this blog exists.
Life has been a little all over the place, and I wanted somewhere that I could actually be real about it. Somewhere to document the trips, the random life changes, the things I’m learning, the things I definitely still don’t understand, and all of those little moments that would probably disappear if I didn’t write them down.
I don’t have everything figured out…not even close. Some days I’m planning my next trip, some days I’m trying to grow a business, some days I’m thinking about completely changing my career, and other days I’m just trying to decide what I want for dinner. This blog is basically a place for all of it.
Travel will always be a huge part of who I am. I grew up in a family that was always going somewhere, planning something, or at least talking about where we wanted to go next. I honestly can’t remember a time when travel wasn’t part of my life. I’m incredibly grateful for all of the places I’ve been, and somehow every trip just makes me want to see even more.
So you’ll find plenty of travel stories and guides here, but you’ll also find everyday life, relationships, business, money, lessons I’m learning in my twenties, things I’m loving lately, and probably a few completely random posts because I refuse to fit my entire life into one little niche.
More than anything, I want this space to feel personal. Not like I have everything figured out and I’m here to tell you how to live your life, but more like you’re catching up with a friend who’s figuring it out right alongside you.
