I go to seek a great perhaps.

— John Green.

Welcome to my blog! For those of you who are new, my name is Melanie but I prefer to be called “Mel.”

If you are an adventurer, you have come to the right place. Feel free to navigate through my site at your own personal freedom!

I know people come here for my ‘travel diary’ entries and my amazing travel tips for budget travelers so I will make my introduction short and sweet.

At only 20 years old, I have traveled to parts of the world some may never see and places you think only exist in movies. I have a deep connection to the world around me and find nature to be my spiritual guide. I do not enjoy working out, but I will hike a mountain for 4 hours just to see water fall (Get it? Waterfall). I am the oldest of three, first of my name, dog mom of Milo, and watcher of stars.

If you are my professor and have more questions regarding myself, please refer to the “about me” page for more information. Thanks!

As for my blog viewers and readers- thank you for spending the time to visit my personal diary, it truly is something I have always wanted to share with people and hope you feel the same way that I do when I explore this beautiful world.
