Honestly, I’m amazed (and grateful) that you’re here. Why? Because nobody enjoys thinking or talking about how to manage money. Finances can be the most stressful aspect of life, and this definitely applies for travel. Traveling is a high-stakes lifestyle that can become very expensive. So, how do you mitigate the risk of losing copious …
I’ve had plenty of awesome travel days. Whether it be a friendly TSA agent, a short Starbucks line, or an entire row to myself, traveling has brought small perks I did not foresee. That being said, I’ve had my fair share of hard travel days! Since I’m all about transparency, why not share my hardest …

Honestly, I still don’t have everything figured out. But, one day, I changed my Pinterest to a business account, and realized that Pinterest marketing is the way to go for me. Here’s why. It …
I know, I know. I go on and on about how amazing Nashville is, where to get good coffee here, the best vegan food, and our local free activities. But, there are some reasons that Nashville is not the best place to move. So, before you up and move to Nashville, I wanted you to …
