comment SETTINGS for a free mini-guide with my phone settings! 👇 are my videos the best out there?? No haha, but I’m super proud of the progress I’ve made and can’t wait to see where I’ll be in the next 3 years! okay so what all has changed since 2021? 📸 1 PRACTICE - I’ve had soooo much practice with what looks good in videos, everything from framing, to how I like to pose & move in ways that feel fun & natural to me 📲 2 QUALITY - there’s no denying that phone video quality has increased since 2021, but that doesn’t account for the vast majority of the change, because I had a decent quality phone then too but with the wrong settings on 🫠 ☺️ 3 CONFIDENCE - I used to feel sooo uncomfortable in front of the camera and would panic if a stranger was watching me, I’ve learned to get over that and do it anyways, even when it’s awkward 🌈 4 PLANNING - I don’t plan out all my shots, but I DO plan out the color of the clothes I’m wearing to make sure I like the overall look with the background 👋 5 MOVEMENT - everything is more interested with a bit of movement in it! ‼️ comment SETTINGS for my free mini-guide with my phone settings! It makes a hugeee difference concept inspo’d by my good friend @goanniewhere!! #egypt #visitegypt #contentcreator #contenttips #contentcreatortips #igtips #travelcreator #iggrowth

life hacks that’ll elevate your travel experiences 👇 There are a few things I do that really just make me feel like I’m good at life sometimes, especially when I’m traveling 🥥 in tropical places, always ask if they have fresh coconut milk - it will CHANGE your coffee game I swear 📚 bring an @amazonkindle everywhere you go ☕️ travel with cinnamon to put in bland coffee with some sugar & you’ve got yourself a shaken cinnamon americano 🍋 put a slice of lemon in any cheap cold light beer & I promise it’ll feel like a treat 🌶 pack a mini hot-sauce or crushed red pepper to elevate any bland foods 💧 travel with a water bottle that cleans itself so you don’t have to - like the @livelarq 🤿 pack your own snorkel so you don’t get stuck with leaky masks used by 100’s of people 💄 use an spf foundation for sunscreen & makeup (I use @tartecosmetics Amazonian clay) 📄 screenshot all your important travel docs/reservations/passport info etc & keep it in a folder in your photos for quick access what random things do you travel with that are a must?? I’m always open to new ideas! #travelhacks #traveltips #relatable #tropicaldestination #worldtravel #stkitts #stkittsandnevis #caribbean

I promised to always share the good AND bad, so here’s 8 things I’m NOT struggling with 👇 I’ve always tried to share the good and the bad of my life but sometimes I think it can get drowned out in everything else! So here’s a few positives along with the struggles: 🌱 I’ve been working towards slowly becoming a vegan for years and I’m currently eating vegan 5 ish days/week and it makes me so happy and I feel amazing ✈️ I feel so fulfilled in this job to be able to help everyone plan their travels better, and expose people to places they may not considered traveling to before 🌞 I truly wake up excited everyday to tackle my to-do list ✨ I’ve never been happier or more confident in my life, and it’s a weird but amazing feeling 🐶 I’m working on appreciating every day I have with Theo, instead of stressing myself out about the fact I will eventually lose him 📚 I started reading again for fun for the first time in a decade and it’s become my favorite evening routine before bed 💕 Austin and I have been together almost 12 years, and I thought I loved him when we got married but OOOF I had no idea we could have the connection we do now 👃 Since my nose surgery last year: I sleep better, exercise easier, breathe easier, and I actually like the look of my nose, something that always made me self conscious I promise to always share the bright & dark sides of being a creator, my life, etc so if you have any questions for me - personal or professional please just ask 🫶

7 things you don’t know about Antarctica 👇 🗺 I mean, they’re half right, because Antarctica is basically another planet 🇦🇶 if Antarctica isn’t on the top of your list, I urge you to make it the top!! Here’s a few WILD things I learned about Antarctica: 💧 it’s the driest continent on the Earth ❄️ mostly because it’s almost always too cold to rain 🧊 BUT - it stores up to 80% of the planet’s freshwater in the form of ice 🌊 if all the ice melted in Antarctica, we’d expect oceans to rise nearly 200 feet 🗻 we don’t know the exact dimensions of Antarctica because of all the ice, but it’s ~40% > than Europe and 50% > than Australia 🥶 the ice averages 7k feet thick (with some of > 15k feet aka almost 3 miles!!) 🌬 it’s the windiest & coldest continent, with an average min temp during winter being -130 F (-90 C) sounds welcoming & inviting right?? 🚢 save this post for our expedition info: MS Fridtjof Nansen @hxhurtigrutenexpeditions #antarctica #antarcticadventure #antarcticaexpedition #hurtigruten #bucketlist #uniquetravel #worldtravel
