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 🤞🏽
Someone on the subway said I smell rich today and that’s like the best manifestation compliment ever
When I entered my 20s I had a checklist: Good job. Money. House. Marriage. But something shifted.. I felt a strong curiosity to travel. So I started small, I went solo... and it all spiraled from there
here’s what solo travel taught me—year by year—in my 20s 🧵
I hope my 30s are less about proving myself and more about enjoying myself. More grounding. More ease. More magic I don’t have to chase, just recognize when it arrives ✨
If this moved you, follow me @packslight on Instagram. I’ll be sharing more stories, reflections, and resources for living a life of freedom and bold adventures into my 30s!
Solo travel isn’t glamorous. Sometimes it’s lonely, sometimes it’s awkward. And sometimes that's exactly what you need to grow. Savor the beautiful empowerment AND embrace the suck. Both are important

Someone said “Nothing gives you a clearer look into someone than how they misinterpret things, every misinterpretation is a confession” and it’s 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 21—$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 (🧵)
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
