About Me

I have lived in Phoenix for 13 years and absolutely love it! So many things to do and see here. I love to hike, cook, try new restaurants, read, visit with friends and plan my next trip!!
I am quiet and respectful.
After years of planning this, I started a RTW trip in March 2016. Yeah! Because of this, I am no longer able to accept guests.
If you have any interest in my blog, it can be found on www.gorgeousunknown.com. Or follow my Instagram at Julie.culturesafar...if you are an avid traveler, I will follow you back!
I am also working to create a website for cultures to connect with each other at www.culturesafar.com. It is just new, so am working to develop content and let people join. As I travel, I plan to contact people for interviews on their local culture/customs....
As part of my travels, I worked to receive my yoga RYT200 teacher certification, so I can teach you yoga.
