Meet Melissa

Founder & Solo Travel Expert

Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Melissa! And I arrived at this point through a series of twists and turns, none of which I was ever expecting. But the unexpected paths bring you to the places you need to go.

My first solo travel adventure started in 2009, the last year of my 20s! This was just before we had the internet in our hands on our phones!

Traveling alone looks a lot different now than when I got started but in a good way.

Over the years, I’ve experienced much personal growth and accomplishment from solo traveling through the whole of Europe and other parts of the world.

These experiences have shaped who I am as a woman and enriched my life in countless ways.

I spent my 30s exploring the world solo, and through this ten-year adventure, I realized that this period is an ideal time for such life-changing journeys.

Traveling solo in my 40s now has been my favorite decade by far!

But, at first, I couldn’t enjoy the solitary time I had with myself. A large part of me was convinced I would have more fun with a partner.

Turns out that going alone is just what I needed.

At one time or another, we can all find ourselves in a place in our lives where it seems everyone else has it figured out. Maybe your best friend just got married.

Perhaps your sibling just had a baby. Or, a co-worker just got promoted over you. You may find yourself feeling pretty lost and alone.

This is the time you should consider a solo trip to help you get back to you!
