Aloha, World!

I’m Daphne, which you might’ve guessed from my blog title. And some of you know me, and some of you don’t, and some of you may be wondering…. Why a travel blog, why me, and why now, when there are two million travel bloggers already out there? (Btw, that’s a totally real number that I just made up. Lol)

Well, I absolutely love to travel. I love adventure, and exploring new places. I love having my hair blown back, and my mind blown. I love gasping at unbelievable sights, eating foods that make my tastebuds dance, and meeting awesome people from varied cultures and backgrounds. And I absolutely love taking photos and telling stories of the amazingness I encounter. I see beauty everywhere, and it seems selfish to just keep it for myself.  I’ve read dozens of travel blogs over the years, and they have helped me tremendously when I plan my own trips, and I want to be able to help others plan their future adventures, through the things I’ve seen and learned on my own journeys. I do a lot of planning and research for my trips, and I figure that if I’ve already done all that work, someone else could possibly benefit and it could help make their journey easier.

My blog is just simply about sharing the beauty and joy I’ve been lucky enough to witness firsthand…. telling it like I see it, and showing it through the eyes of my lens. Maybe it will help you plan your own adventures, or maybe it will just give you a glimpse into some of the beauty you didn’t even know was out there.

That’s the main reason. And the other is, …. it’s never too late to do something that makes you feel good! I want to leave my son knowing that, and seeing that his Mom truly lived by those words.

I hope you enjoy the blog. And if not, no problem! Just subscribe and pretend you do, until I write something that you eventually like. 😉
