Greetings! I come from California but have been traveling through South America, currently Europe... and many more places next. I love vegan food, cats, showing off my moves on a dance floor and sharing my travel experience and perspective. I believe travel is for anyone at any budget and am always excited to share and answer questions about how WorldPackers makes that possible.

Thank you so much! I just confirmed my 1st trip in Mexico and I’m nervous yet excited because I never travelled alone before. So many people told that it’s dangerous but I think with good common sense and intuition I’ll be okay. Happy travels!
