A Little About Me
Hi, I’m Jamie — travel advocate and founder of Real Girl Travel. I created this space for women like me: curious, ambitious, adventurous, and maybe a little tired of travel content that doesn’t quite feel... real.
I work full-time in a demanding career, but travel is my passion — not just the bucket-list stuff, but the little moments that make you feel alive: that perfect warm cappuccino on a crisp morning walk in Venice, hiking to a sunset view in Oahu, or wandering solo through a market where no one speaks your language (but somehow, you still connect).
Real Girl Travel is here to empower and inspire women to see the world — whether it’s a weekend getaway, a solo adventure, or a long-overdue girls’ trip. I share honest travel tips, personal stories, and real-talk advice for planning trips that feel good for you.
I’m not a digital nomad, and I’m not selling you a fantasy. I’m showing you how travel can fit into your real life — career, responsibilities, budget, and all.
— Jamie

My Top 5 Destinations (so far!)
1. Hawai‘i (The Big Island)
Volcanoes, waterfalls, black sand beaches, and pure aloha vibes—Hawai‘i's Big Island is a nature lover’s dream with a soul-soothing spirit.
2. Italy
From sipping espresso in Rome to sunsets on the Amalfi Coast, Italy is romance, history, and carbs—what more could you want?
3. South Korea
A vibrant mix of tradition and modern energy. Think bustling cities, peaceful temples, incredible food, and K-beauty everything.
4. Japan
Zen gardens, neon lights, sushi, and cherry blossoms—Japan blends the serene and the futuristic like nowhere else.
5. Spain
Colorful, flavorful, and full of life. Tapas in Seville, art in Barcelona, beaches in Mallorca—Spain is joy on every corner.
