Life

This isn’t meant to be a curated lifestyle blog, really anything but. These posts simply reflect my thoughts, feelings and goals, at any given time, in any given place. Here you’ll find insight on why I started galavanting around the world and what I’ve discovered along the way. 

These posts focus on the real and raw experiences of an imperfect life in progress. I hope you enjoy the ride.

Failed Plans, Skydiving, and the Art of Starting Over

It’s been a minute, hasn’t it?! A lot of things have happened since my last real-life update post after my trip to Cambodia back in June. And while, once again, things didn’t go quite according to plan…

The Journeys We Don’t Plan…

Last year, I arrived in Barcelona seeking an escape from responsibilities, past choices, and the chaos that has become the perpetual byproduct of life in the United States. Over a year later I find myself…

Three Weeks (of Pivots) in Cambodia

Cambodia wasn’t supposed to be an emotional rollercoaster. But then again, neither was my plan to leave the states in the first place. What started as a long-anticipated pilgrimage to Angkor Wat ended up testing my flexibility, patience, and pest tolerance…

Visa Runs, Bankruptcy, and Unlikely Plot Twists

On May 18th, I’ll have been in Thailand for 90 days, so if you know anything about international travel and the dangers of overstaying your legal welcome, you know it’s time for me to…

WanderLOST & FOUND: Barcelona/Breath

In the 13 months since I left the States, I’ve lived in Barcelona, South Korea, Barbados, and now Bangkok. Each place has profoundly shaped me, my thoughts, my emotions, and ultimately, my outlook on life. This blog, intended to be an unfiltered…

Bangkok Earthquake: The Matter of Moments

This was supposed to be just another simple blog and reel, highlighting the week of a regular digital nomad trying to conquer the world from the amazingly diverse and humid streets of Bangkok, Thailand. Friday’s earthquake changed that. 

Forty Years Late… Yet Somehow, Right on Time

I landed in Bangkok on February 18, the day I turned 40. However, this “milestone” didn’t come with a big party or any fanfare. There was no glitzy photoshoot with an overly dramatic dress, shiny…

By the Numbers: What I’ve Spent, Saved and Blown

UPDATED WEEKLY: When I originally started this series, it was meant to serve as a tracker of all money in and all money out while I embarked on my journey to pay down my debt while traveling the world. However, for various reasons the last six months have been anything but financially viable. Given this, I’ve decided to restructure…

But Did You Die?!? The Hangover Before Bangkok

So… where do I even start? I’ve been MIA, both from my blog and my life, since late October. I was still in Barbados the last time I posted, finally coming to grips (I thought) with where my finances were and unraveling the suffocating tie…

Who I Am… What I Am…

As I lay on the bed under the sweltering late-night heat of Barbados, next to a fan on full blast because AC is most definitely a luxury here, and replaying the events and interactions that led me to this frame of mind, it has become very apparent that I need to be clear about who I am and what I am…
