Hey there! I’m Alicia, and I’m so glad you’ve stumbled onto my corner of the internet.

I started this blog because I’m passionate about travel, storytelling, and connecting with others who share that same curiosity about the world. If that sounds like you, you’re definitely in the right place.

I was born with a suitcase in my soul and a map in my heart. Growing up in the sun-kissed French Riviera, I was surrounded by the beauty of the Mediterranean, but my journey took a twist when my family moved to Perth, Australia in 2012. It was here I learned to appreciate the little things, slow mornings, strong coffee, and finding magic in the ordinary moments of life. Yet, despite settling in, I always felt the pull of far-off places, and I knew deep down that there was more to explore.

This blog is a reflection of all the places I’ve wandered and the stories I’ve collected along the way. It’s a digital postcard capturing memories, misadventures, and everything that makes our big, beautiful world feel like home. I don’t travel just to see new places; I travel to truly experience them, to get lost, to listen, to taste, and to connect.

But here’s the thing, I wasn’t always the confident solo traveler I am today. In fact, the idea of traveling alone once terrified me. Leaving the comfort of my family, my routine, and stepping into the unknown felt like a challenge I wasn’t ready for. But I took a leap, and that leap changed everything. What started as fear evolved into freedom. I learned to trust myself, to embrace uncertainty, and to find beauty in even the imperfect moments. Now, every adventure feels like a gift and I treasure every single opportunity to explore and grow.
