What began as a family trip sometime in 2009 along with her brother, ended up giving her the desire to truly travel the world, spreading love, peace, and environmental awareness. What first started as a trip to Europe, coursing through Belgium, Germany, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands and Switzerland ended up becoming a 2-year trip where she went to see other countries and continents. At that time, she was able to live off of $2000 while taking on odd jobs here and there. But even after 2 years, she wasn’t ready to stop.

In July of 2015, she decided that she was going to visit all 196 Sovereign Nations, and document her experiences to share with the world. She shares, “Since school, I’ve had this desire to visit every country in the world, intrigued to learn more about every culture, natural habitat, and religion.” She goes on, “In America we are lucky to have such a vast melting pot of cultures and people from all over the world who make the country what it is today.”
