Take control of your Personal Safety while traveling: Part 3 Tool of the trade.
Take control of your Personal Safety while traveling: Part 3 Tool of the trade.
I’ve been solo traveling for the better part of 20 years. One thing that you can never be too prepared for is your safety. Let’s be real here. When you’re traveling you’re moving away from your comfort zone. Even if you’re going somewhere you’ve been before. You’re going from an environment you are in full control over to one with twists and turns you could not have expected.
Now I don’t say this…

Take Control of your Personal Safety while traveling: Part 2 Travel insurance... is it worth it?
Take Control of your Personal Safety while traveling: Part 2 Travel insurance… is it worth it?
You have a trip coming up. You’re so excited, as well you should be. If you’ve read part one you’ve already done your research. You have a plan of what you want to see, maybe some activities you want to do. More importantly, you’ve checked out the climate of the place you want to go. I’m not just talking about the weather. No matter what type of trip you take you’ll want to make sure…

Take control of your personal safety while traveling: Part 1
Take control of your personal safety while traveling: Part 1
Gone are the days when you can take a solo trip on a whim, or are they? I used to be able to hop on a plane, after finding a last-minute deal and head off for a fun weekend. Can I still do that? Of course, you can! It’s just a matter of doing the prep work. I know it sounds tedious and boring but you’ll have a more enjoyable trip full of lasting memories, instead of headaches and regret. Here are…

Preparing for my first hunt...ever.
Preparing for my first hunt…ever.
Let me start by saying, I have never hunted anything in my life. It was not ever something I thought about doing. I grew up in the country. Had friends who hunted and was even a recipient of their bounties, but never considered doing it myself.
For most of my life, I’ve been a tom-boy. I love sports, being active, seeing how far I can push myself. In 2021, while most of the world was trying to…

Start to think about your safety while you travel, now.
Flying over Nevada
I know it’s not the most popular topic to write about, but it’s something I’ve taken to heart over the last year. Before the pandemic, I thought about travel safety, but not on the level that I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. As a solo female traveler, safety is always a concern. It’s something that I’m constantly thinking about. From what tools can I bring to defend…

Why you need a travel advisor, even if you book your own travel
Why you need a travel advisor, even if you book your own travel
Today’s travel scene is crazy, to say the least. With country closures and travel bans working with someone whose job it is to know the travel industry has never been more important. Here are the reasons why you need a travel advisor, even if you book your own travel.
Added Peace of mind
I have been a solo traveler for over 20 years. I had always booked my own travel. Then I became a travel…

Solo Camping. Should you try it? How to be prepared.
Solo Camping. Should you try it? How to be prepared.
I am the first to admit I am not a great camper, but I love the outdoors. Camping, for me, has always been something you do in a group. You get your friends together, bring hotdogs, marshmallows, and a ton of booze so you don’t have to remember that you’re sleeping on the ground, with only nylon covering to shield you from mother nature. However, the world is changing and group travel is…

Christmas Markets to visit in the US (and open for 2020!)
Christmas Markets to visit in the US (and open for 2020!)
I love Christmas markets. They evoke the spirit of Christmas. Stalls lined up offering holiday favorites from spiced wine to minced meat pies, from ornaments to handcrafted toys. There truly is something for everyone at a Christmas market. Although they are extremely popular in Europe, Christmas markets only recently began to pop up in the US. So if you’re looking for that Christmas feel head to…

Here are some tips for creating a capsule for winter travel.
It’s all about layering
