Welcome

Hey guys, I’m Jori!

I’m a small town girl from Texas, but I like to joke with my friends that I am now a “citizen of the world.” I have lived in the US, Spain, Italy, and France, and I’ve traveled to 54 countries so far (and still counting!). Most of the travel I do is on my own and in the most budget-friendly way possible. I believe this blog will help you if:

  • You’re planning a trip and want to learn from other’s experiences (especially if you’re solo!)
  • You’re moving to another country and are a bit lost on how to do it
  • You’re simply curious about my travels!

When I started traveling, I was a bit lost. When I moved to a new country, I wanted to jump off the plane and run all the way home. I hope my experiences will help you feel more comfortable and prepared in your own adventures!
