Hi, I’m Alexa. Thanks for taking the time to visit my website. I am French-born, an American at heart and on a mission to explore as much of this world as I can.
I am a freelance writer turned travel blogger traveling mostly through America, Europe and Mexico.
I am also a wife and proud mom to one amazing son. When my son, Roland was six years I took a freelance writing course to bring some creativity into my stay at home mom life and found a passion for writing and combined this with my lifelong love of travel by creating this website.
It’s my mission to show you how can you turn your travel dreams into reality.
