Home… get it?

Currently this site is my outlet to document my international travels. I’m not selling anything; I’m not necessarily looking to launch in to the blog career space. I just want to share my experiences, because it’s truly a blessing, and occasionally I get questions about the trips. If you’ve ever asked me what I felt about a trip I’ve taken, or asked for any recommendations, or enjoy travel photography, hopefully this serves that desire.

Each post will have 27 or 15 photos. Twenty-seven has always been a special number in my life, and it’s just enough to give a summary, but not too many to sort through. For quick trips, 15 suffices. Fifteen is the date I was born.

In addition to loving photography, writing the posts gives me a chance for a different form of expression; it allows me to provide my recommendations, give myself a refresher for the key things I might forget about my travels in the future, and previously unbeknownst to me, is actually enjoyable.

I considered branching out and including domestic travel, but for now international will be the focus, as it’s been an incredible opportunity. At this point, I’ve been to more countries than I have states within the U.S (26 states). I achieved several travel goals such as: 27 countries by age 27, traveling to 6 of the 6 (inhabitable) continents, and traveling to multiple Wonders of the World. Traveling at this rate won’t last forever, but while it does, let’s make the best of it! But I will never stop traveling as long as I’m able.

I’m excited to see where it goes next. Travel with me, JMD!
