I'm a Southern belle, a food and wine fanatic, a writer/editor and sometimes photographer, an endurance athlete, a grammar nerd and glossophile (look that one up), and -- most importantly -- a girl who can't sit still. Oh, and I would be a killer Amazing Race partner. I spent the first three months of 2013 backpacking solo in Southeast Asia, and now I'm lucky enough to work for an adventure travel company. The road is my home!

If it excites you and scares the crap out of you at the same time, it probably means you should do it.
