Hi, I'm Nicole. A restless twentysomething. A writer, photographer, and gypsy at heart.

PHILOSOPHY

We all have different measures for success. For some, it's a good career, a fat paycheck, or a beautiful family thriving in a white picket fenced house in the suburbs. But this is not for me. I believe there is more to life than an 8-5 job and, eventually, retirement. We're only young once, and I want to spend it seeing the world and being happy and free.

Meeting couchsurfers in countries that I visit to get better acquainted with the culture through the locals, and with fellow travelers as well.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Being at a distant, unfamiliar place surrounded by people who don't speak your language, but feeling right at home.

教，学，和分享

I have learned so many things from all the travelers I have met. But the biggest thing I've learned is this: you are wasting your life living lonely. You can be happy and free. It's a choice. Take it.
