I want to co-host a travel reality show where women take their first solo trip and discover their independence and identity through the ups and downs of the adventure π€π½

I hope my 30s are less about proving myself and more about enjoying myself. More grounding. More ease. More magic I donβt have to chase, just recognize when it arrives β¨

Solo travel isnβt glamorous. Sometimes itβs lonely, sometimes itβs awkward. And sometimes that's exactly what you need to grow. Savor the beautiful empowerment AND embrace the suck. Both are important

Someone said βNothing gives you a clearer look into someone than how they misinterpret things, every misinterpretation is a confessionβ and itβs so true because how people misunderstand things can reveal a lot about their perspectives and feelings.

I won my first travel grant when I was 21β$20,000 to study Arabic in Dubai. Since then travel grants have taken me to more than 8 countries I didn't have enough money (or confidence) to visit myself... even *after* I graduated. Here's how (π§΅)

Most people have no idea these types of funded travel programs exist and get it. I came across them by luck, and had to get really good as separating the gimmicks/scams from worthwhile opportunities. So much trial and error and research for hoursss

Plus they're kind of hard to know what to search for right? They're not just scholarships for students. Some are best for recent grads. Some for career-driven folks. Some for people who just love travel and need newness and joy in their life!
