Hey there! I'm a slow-traveler with roots in Peru and the U.S., currently embracing the nomadic life. My passion for capturing life through a lens has taken me from the colorful streets of Merida to the hidden eateries of Lima. My love for food and a good story drives my travels – I'm always searching for that next delicious meal and the untold stories behind it. With a food and beverage management background, I don't just stumble upon foodie havens; I seek them out. My camera is my constant companion, ready to snap the vibrant life of the streets, the quiet beauty of the landscapes, and the authentic moments that you can't find in a travel brochure. Being native in English and Spanish has opened doors to friendships and experiences worldwide, enriching my journey and the tales I can tell. I'm your person if you're curious about where to find the best late-night taco stand or the most scenic sunset spot that only locals know about. I'm all about diving into the local scene, discovering nightlife that pulses with culture, and sharing meals that turn into memories. Join me on this adventure, and let's discover the world's hidden gems together. It's about the people we meet, the food we savor, and the memories we make – one photo, one bite, one guide at a time.

🌎 I started traveling the world in 2015 and never stopped since then. So far, I have visited more than 40 countries and still counting, learning a lot about their cultures, connecting with the locals, and exploring their nature. 🗓️ One thing I learned throughout these years is real: Planning a trip takes time!! If you don't have a direction or some previous knowledge about one destination, it will take A LOT OF TIME!! I love to plan trips, and I improved how I create my itineraries so that I now have the confidence and experience to help others plan their trips. ⛰️ I aim to use all my knowledge acquired over all these years and help you plan your next dream vacation. The type of travel I specialize in is ecotourism and adventures worldwide!! I love to be active while I'm exploring new destinations. I lived in Brazil, Serbia, and I'm currently living the digital nomad lifestyle in South America. ✅ My services will help if you are into ecotourism, adventure travel, and sustainable practices without losing the opportunity to connect with the local culture. If you like to combine traveling with being active and exploring nature, my services will help to improve your travel experience. 🛑 My services won't help if you seek the best hotels or restaurant recommendations for a specific destination. When I recommend a restaurant or accommodation in my services, it was a place I visited and had a good experience, but that's not my specialty.

Hi fellow travel lovers! I'm Bethany, an explorer with a passport stamped in 52 countries. Having called three different nations home, I've cultivated a deep appreciation for the cultures our world offers. By day, I navigate the realms of a full-time job outside the travel sphere, which fuels my passion for crafting concise yet insightful guides to the remarkable places I've encountered. Embarking on a journey with me means embracing a blend of adventure, relaxation, and immersion in local customs. As a solo female traveler, I've ventured through 21 countries, and I'm here to share insights on safety and the empowering experience of navigating the globe alone. A glimpse into my roots reveals an American spirit born in Seoul, nurtured in Germany during my childhood, and blossomed in the United States. A decade in the vibrant DC area enriched my life with a wealth of experiences that I'm eager to recommend. Now, I find myself based in Denver, Colorado, brimming with tips for skiing and snowboarding in the winter, and hiking and camping in the summer. Whether it's strolling through historic cityscapes or savoring the diverse flavors of global cuisine, I'm an enthusiast for walking tours and foodie adventures. Balancing a demanding full-time job with an insatiable wanderlust, I make it a goal to take at least three international trips a year, and monthly domestic trips.
