Five years ago, I decided to work on changing my career path. I started writing a blog, and created a website. This has allowed me to develop skills in content creation, copywriting, customer service and social media.
My site includes travel guides and tips for destinations in the U.S. Canada & Europe, fashion and lifestyle content.
I hope to inspire women to seek adventure and fulfill their dreams .  My goal is to work remotely, travel , make new friends and learn new cultures .
