Hi there! I’m Lea.

You could say I’ve been traveling my whole life. I was fortunate to have a father in the airline industry, so from the ripe young age of six months, I took off on my first adventure that never stopped.  From Fijian villages to Australian beaches, we explored all of the beautiful wonders the world had to offer. In college, I backpacked across Europe with friends, and even now, I escaped the clutches of corporate America to find a new life in Spain. 

Growing up in Colorado, being active and adventurous was a way of life. During the summers, hiking, camping, and wakeboarding dominated my days…and in the winter you could always find me carving it up on the mountains. My passion for sports inspired me to get a degree in fitness and nutrition, thus making it an everyday aspect of my life. Being active and nourishing our body properly isn't just about looking good and feeling good. It’s also about being mentally healthy. Ever wonder why you feel physically and mentally present on vacation or how you lose 10 lbs after porking out for a week? Perhaps it’s the fresh air, quality ingredients, or walking over 10K steps a day. 

I have been told throughout my life, “you’re so lucky to be able to travel”... and that is why I have decided to start this platform. Travel isn’t a luxury; it's a necessity, and something that everyone can and should experience. After all, it is the single greatest education you can give yourself. 

It's time to debunk the myth that travel is reserved only for the privileged few. Social media has warped our perception, making us think that if we're not lounging in fancy resorts, or jetting off in first class, we're missing out. I'm here to set the record straight and reveal the accessible side of traveling. It’s time someone kept it real…sharing the nitty-gritty details - the good, the bad, and the downright unspeakable. 

From finding yourself in business class to recovering from the trauma of your first squatty potty experience, I hope I can inspire you to go and chase your own adventures, to step out of your comfort zone and to challenge yourself physically and spiritually.
