So, I guess this is it.
I’m actually starting a travel blog.
I can’t even begin to explain how long I’ve wanted to do this–or all of the reasons why I ultimately never did until now. But I guess that’s how it always starts, right?
Anyways, I’m incredibly excited to share my stories, pictures and ideas with the travel blogger community–and more importantly, I can’t wait to start learning from and connecting with other bloggers.
So, I think I’ll dedicate my first post to helping you learn a little more about me:
Who is The Wandering Blonde?
- I’m 23 years old.
- I’ve lived in Houston, TX since December 2014 and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite cities in the USA.
- I work an 8-5 job in marketing.
- I recently moved in with my long-term boyfriend, Derek.
- I have possibly the biggest sweet tooth of anyone I’ve ever known–seriously, if it has chocolate on it, no matter what it is, I’ll eat it.
- I’m a bit obsessive about planning trips, even if I have no intention of actually taking the trip in the near future. And I’m not talking about Googling pretty pictures…I mean researching flight/train routes, selecting potential hotels, and mapping out activity schedules in each city. I know, it’s strange.
- I really love the art of photography, although I don’t consider myself to be very good. I love taking pictures, but I love looking at other photographers’ work just as much.
- My most memorable travel locations (so far!): Machu Picchu and Pileh/Loh Samah Bay
- My biggest bucket list destination: Currently it’s Romania, but it seems to change weekly!
- No, I’ve never dyed my hair! 😉
Looking forward to seeing where this newest adventure (aka blogging) takes me!

Welcome to the blogging community! Where will you be going next?
Kelly says
Thanks! I’m actually not really sure yet–looking at locations in Europe because I haven’t been in a while but I’m honestly probably just going to choose based on flight prices. But, I’m particularly interested in Denmark, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Germany right now.

I vote Germany! Lol
