There are hundreds of Tulum vegan restaurants. If you're only in town for a few days, the prospect of narrowing down where to eat can be daunting. After all, foodies want the best, most authentic food at every meal, especially when we're somewhere new to us. In good...
After lazing around in the relaxing town that is Tulum, Val and I decided to spend a couple hours on a sweltering afternoon at the Tulum Ruins. Aside from the Gulf, the Tulum Ruins are the main attraction to this Yucatan beach town. Even though we'd already visited...
Chichén Itzá is a wonder of the world and one of the main attractions in Mexico. After a few days in Cancún, a day trip to the ruins of this ancient city is one to remember. Tours abound, but there are ways to do a Chichén Itzá day trip on your own. We did this...
This June, I wrote a Summer List. But first, I read Leslie Trovato's newlsetter, Small Affairs. I consider Leslie a church mother—her warmth emanates off the screen on Instagram, a not-very-warm place. After seeing just a couple of her posts, it took no convincing to...
First things first: this post contains affiliate links. See more in the disclaimer. This week, like many, was heavy. That is why this post is covered in flowers. We need beauty between the madness. Ever since I first became aware that we live in a world of blatant...

If you're anything like me, summers off from school in childhood were all about reading. In the humid Southern summers, I traveled all over the world through books. It comes as no surprise that, as an adult, I both travel and read like my life depends on it. These 12...
After days of constant noise, the house is silent today. A week after I got home from Mexico, Mom and I were in the SUV on a roundtrip drive to Louisville. We hosted my younger half sisters all last week for the beginning of their summer break and some bonding time....
Update July 7, 2022: I've since changed the name of this category to "Thoughts." The premise is the same. When I first started this blog in 2019, I wrote about more than travel. It was a time of so much creativity and exploration. The more I learned about...
After a long day's work, I was curled up in bed at my host parents' house in a Ukrainian village. At the time, I was a Peace Corps Volunteer, and I was struggling with many things I don't talk about outside of therapy. I came across a YouTube video of a couple...
Hi, I'm Sarah
Welcome to my oasis! I am a writer and budding entrepreneur with a love for caffeine, capital gains, and seeing the world.

Come along for the ride!
