About Me

I’m a travel addict and chocoholic. A twenty something American girl figuring things out and slowly traveling the world.

My life has been one adventure after another, and I just finished a Working Holiday Authorization in Dublin, Ireland. I’m currently back in the States looking for my next adventure!

The first time I traveled outside of the United States was in 2005 when I was thirteen – a doe eyed Southern girl who had never been out of America.  We went to five countries in ten days – Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, and England.  When I arrived back home, I told my parents, “I want a burger, and when can I go back?”

I didn’t get back to Europe until seven years later in summer 2012.  That summer study abroad in Stirling, Scotland was my first experience living in another country. For two months, me and a bunch of other American kids tromped across Europe, drinking beer, and going to class on occasion.  But study abroad wasn’t enough.

I moved to Ireland in September 2013 after a roller coaster of a year. If you would like to know the specifics of the reason then click here! I had a Working Holiday Authorization which was good for one year, and it gave me the right to work in Ireland and freedom to travel all over Europe.  It was perfect!

I’ve been searching for the ultimate path in my life.  Plan? No, I don’t have one, but that’s not stopping me.

  4. 1) Fellow Georgian. 2) McLintock, that is all. 3) Arctic Monkeys inspired my URL. 4) Horror movies – why do they even exist? 5) I HATE HEARING PEOPLE EAT. IT IS THE WORST.

    Oh, and thanks for making me remember the deliciousness that is Taco Bell.

      1. ^ I am going to call a 96% chance on this. If you have ridden a bike through the Irish countryside (one of my dreams) I will bump it up to a solid 98.5%.

  37. Hi Morgan, Love your blog from what I’ve seen of it so far! I’m an American (and chocoholic! 🙂 ) from Wisconsin. I’m graduating in May and have decided to work abroad as well. I am going to start by teaching English in China, and I hope to continue working abroad after that in different countries. Ireland would be so amazing! I just started up blogging again, but for now it’s more personal/lifestyle. I’m going to make the transition to travel/lifestyle this summer, and I will keep reading your blog for inspiration 🙂
