Be My Travel Muse
By Ava Apollo: Travel has always been my #1 addiction (although angry birds is a close second… just kidding… mostly), and most of my life decisions have revolved direclty around it. I studied international studies at UCSB and immediately moved to Taipei where I studied Mandarin.

After the gap year adventure ended, it was time to come home and become a corporate drone. Though work is a necessary evil, the fun and adventures never have to stop. This site is all about off-beat travel – whether the journey be long or short. Unlike most travelers, I rely completely on free web information to get inspired and make travel plans, then I share the steps and information with you, so that YOU can do it too!
