Hi, I’m Tori.  I’ve loved to travel for as long as I can remember.  My earliest travel memories are of a family road trip from Adelaide to the Gold Coast, and that time my Dad locked the keys in the rental car at Seal Bay on Kangaroo Island.  Fast forward to when I was 12, and our first international family vacay to Hong Kong.  I was enchanted by the place, and spent every last moment gazing out the hotel window, just itching to explore every nook & cranny of the Kowloon side!

Since then, I’ve been obsessed with exploring the world, and my travel bucket list only ever gets longer.  I’m usually traveling solo, on the budget end of the scale. I’m equally at home traveling with a friend, and I have also been lucky enough to experience a few luxuries in my time – hello Oberoi Amarvilas and Little Kulala!

In June of 2018, I took an eight month career break to travel the world – USA Road Trip, East Africa, New Zealand & Australia and decided to start this blog to share my travels with friends and family.  It’s 2021 now, and I’m still here, sharing my travel tips and experiences, and planning my next great adventure.  If you love to explore a great city, or head to the countryside and find the best day hike, then I’m here to help.  I can probably even recommend a great restaurant, cafe or brewpub to enjoy after a day of exploration.

When I’m not on the road, you’ll find me based in Philadelphia, drinking craft beer, eating all the vegan foods the city has to offer, listening to live music and clocking up miles on the trail so that I’m prepared for the next great day hike on my bucket list.

Let me know if you have any questions about one of the destinations I have visited, or if I can give you any other travel planning advice.

Happy Travels!!
