Wandering Ways

exploring the many ways of the world

Let’s Explore

I am excited to share my passion for exploration with you! This site is intended to be a collection of my travel stories and photos. An ongoing project, with many past memories to be recalled, and endless adventures to still have.

Travel can be many things for different people. For some, it can simply be a getaway from the daily grind. For me, seeing is believing. I am an avid proponent in the power of firsthand experience as the ultimate teacher. Exploration and exposure to differing cultures can lead to better understanding and deeper compassion for others, especially those often given specific narratives by mainstream media. It can also expand perspectives on faith, love, life, and happiness. I’m constantly chasing those exhilarating feelings of growth and learning, so my motto has been: “The more foreign, the better.”

This world, with its varying landscapes and environments, also inspires unlimited intrigue to explore. I can’t count how many times I’ve been humbled by this amazing planet!

I hope you enjoy a brief dip into various corners of the world by digging into blog posts. You can find even more photos on my Instagram! Thanks again, and cheers to stretching that comfort zone.
