About Me

Hi! I'm Katie.

 

I’m happiest when I’m exploring new places, lying on the beach or eating fresh foods (and if that were all to happen at once, I’d be set!). I believe in taking every opportunity and living each day with a goal of making ourselves the best we can be…whether that be traveling the world (or just exploring a new corner of your own city), cooking nutritious whole foods, or working out in a new and fun way.

I graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in magazine journalism in 2015 and found that I wasn't quite ready to hop into corporate life. Studying abroad in London in 2014 sparked a passion for adventure and exploration that simply could not be stifled.

The year after graduation I learned that life is not about asking yourself if you CAN do something, it’s about asking yourself how badly you want it. 

So, I quit my office job in the city and spent the first half of 2016 balancing three part-time jobs and saving every penny I could get my hands on. It wasn’t easy, but when you have a dream you have to find a way to make it work.

On September 15th, 2016 I set off on a year-long journey to live and work in Australia and see as much of the world as I possibly could.

Today, I still travel as much as I possibly can – sometimes navigating the exotic locales of my dreams, sometimes finding hidden gems closer to home.
