Roam & Revel was created for three reasons:
1. I'm inspired by different cultures and love bringing a piece of their lifestyles home with me. Whether its new recipes I've never had before, an interesting perspective and mindset, or traditional designs, I am always excited to share what I have learned in my travels.
2. I want to support slow fashion: small businesses, local makers, and traditional artisans. With Amazon, the "race to the bottom," and general corporate greed, time and time again we see workers exploited. People are forced to move from their villages to the big cities where they are exploited and live in factories. There are so many documentaries on Netflix and Youtube for more information on this issue. Buying from traditional artisans allows them to provide a dignified living for their family.
3. I want to encourage you to do the same! I offer free guides for all my favorite places, to make your trip stress free! You'll know what to expect, where to eat, and what to do!
I'm so excited you're on this journey with me!
So let's get going, Roam around, and Revel at what we see!
xo,
