hey friends! I know I have been a bit mia on here hey friends! I know I have been a bit mia on here lately but I have been super busy with school and a big project we are working on! 

Since there are many new faces around here and it’s been awhile since I’ve introduced myself I figure why not share a few things about myself!

- I grew up in Florida on the west coast and lived there until 2012. 
- I lived in Italy from 2012 to 2018 and then was in North Carolina for a year before leaving to travel for 1.5 years through Asia! 
- I’ve visited over 70 countries (many more than once)
- I have a cat named Harlow who is super cute and cuddly
- I am scuba certified, have my 200 hr yoga certification and am a licensed dental hygienist
- I am currently enrolled in a full stack web development bootcamp so that I can work remotely and travel whenever I want (when it is safe to do so)
- I am a road biker (you’ve probably seen my stories) and I love going to the beach
- I am a huge adventure seeker and I love sharing my travels on my blog and on IG with you guys!
- I love sunglasses and of course my favorites are from @mahoshades. Their styles are so flattering and I know that my eyes are always protected by their polarized lenses. Don’t forget that you can get 10% off with code ’TRAVELED’

Tell me something fun about yourself! I’d love to get to know you better!

Exactly one year ago we landed in Kuala Lumpur, Ma Exactly one year ago we landed in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for what we thought would only be a month or two. 

Little did we know that the entire world would shut down and we would be living in Malaysia for 6 months. The day after we arrived the country went on lockdown and everything changed. 

I feel incredibly fortunate that we were able to stay in Malaysia as long as we did and that we could do some domestic travel a few months into our time there. 

Some of the best places to visit in Malaysia are:
* Kuala Lumpur
* Penang
* Melaka
* Ipoh
* Cameron Highlands
* Langkawi
* Tioman Island
* Redang Island
* Rawa Island

Where were you when the world shut down this time last year?
