2025


Not All Journeys Have Maps

2025 isn’t about plane tickets or passports. I won’t be packing a suitcase or chasing sunsets this year. Instead, I’m on a very different kind of journey — one that doesn’t involve airports or road trips, but one that’s just as challenging and life-changing.

This year, I’m navigating something deeply personal: my health. It’s a journey I never planned for and one I wouldn’t have chosen, but it’s where life has brought me. There are still milestones and new places — but they look more like doctor’s offices and waiting rooms, scans and treatments. The adventure now is measured in courage and resilience.

If you’ve followed my travel blog for a while, you know how much I love exploring the world. But right now, I’m focused on exploring something much closer to home: strength, vulnerability, and healing.

If you’d like to follow along, I’ve created a new blog where I’m sharing that story — raw, real, and hopeful. It’s called Diary of a Tiny Mouse, and it’s where I’m documenting this journey from the perspective of someone trying to stay brave, even when I feel small.

You can read it here:

Thank you for being part of my story — whether it’s on the road or at home.
