To Live, Not Exist is an experiential travel blog documenting my own solo female travel stories, random adventures and recommendations for inspiration and guidance. It is intended to inspire and empower you to begin your own solo travel adventures, start collecting experiences and begin truly living, not existing. Since I began to live this way I’ve been better able to manage my mental health and I’ve seen improvements in my happiness and wellbeing: travel is a form of therapy for me (and, no, that’s not medical advice).

You can read my travel stories, and live vicariously through my solo adventures, here.
