a home for wanderers, risk takers and trailblazers
No Maps or Foot Tracks is not your typical travel blog. On these pages, it’s all about embracing the destination-less journey, tuning inward as you go outward, and leaving room for chance encounters, unexpected detours, and adventure to find you. You know, the stuff of the best travel tales.
You’ll find curated travel guides and personal narratives from my own open-ended wanderings. Consider all of it a launchpad, a “start here” so to speak, for your own heart wide open, intuition-led trust fall of a journey through the places and spaces I’ve been wandering just a few steps ahead of you.
Here, we leave the maps at home and forge our own footsteps.
Coming Soon: Florence City Guide
After more than a month in Florence, I’m ready to start sharing all of my favorite spots and things to do, some of which are my own findings, some are from locals, and more still from some of you or travelers I’ve met along the way. All of it coming your this November.
Have a Florence tip or recommendation you’d love to see included? I’d love to hear it!
