Just a Girl and Her Travel Blog
I was inspired to travel by my family. I remember riding in the car along the winding mountainside in Southern California with Papa (my granddad) simultaneously driving and pointing down a deep ravine scaring the bejesus out of us. I can feel the long-healed bumps and bruises earned from a terrible experience of us ice [...]
Well, it's been over a year since I posted anything on TravelMorganTravel. The simple reason is that I haven't really been traveling. Since I last posted in April 2018, I spent two weeks in Belfast, Northern Ireland collecting fieldwork for my Master's Project...
For a week. But STILL! I'm going back to Ireland! One month from now, I will be jet setting to the Emerald Isle to get my fix on Bulmers cider and Cadbury caramels. I plan to see all of my friends and wander by my old apartment. I. Cannot. Wait. My week over there will [...]
Well, it's been a super long time since I've published anything on here. Amazingly, a few people still click over to my blog. I don't know why. Maybe there's a few residual posts out there still circulating. That's cool I guess. It's really difficult to run a travel blog when you're not, you know, traveling. [...]
As you travel around the world, you meet all kinds of people. Some of these people are scum bags, others are God sent. A bunch of these people will become your friends, but only a few will become your forever friends. Some will be friends to your face while talking about you behind your back. [...]
Below is a column I wrote for the Times-Georgian. Hope you enjoy! Looking back on 2015 is fun. I had a wonderful time adventuring around the USA. I saw the Grand Canyon, Cherry Blossom Festival, the Rocky Mountains, and swam in the ocean. It’s hard to believe I was able to accomplish so much! But [...]
Believe it or not, the top post of 2015 is The Time I Went to a Psychic. I literally laughed out loud when I saw that! That was such an arbitrary day when Payton and I decided to pop in to see Sylvia. Since she and I visited the psychic in March, I figured I should [...]
I was thinking about it this morning, and I've actually already officially done my 12 trips in 12 months! Initially, I was going for all of 2015, but then I thought about the trips that I took when I returned home from Ireland. October, I drove out to Louisiana to visit a friend. https://www.instagram.com/p/uoKDsnqjrY/ November, [...]
Have you ever stopped and really looked around your own town? There's crime, prejudice, and hate everywhere. I understand that some people are filled with more hate and violence than others, and I respect their ability to do harm to me. But that does not stop me from traveling. Why should it? If I let [...]
In the 2015 MLB season, I did not make it to a single Atlanta Braves baseball game, but I did go to Opening Day of another team and I saw the Yankees play the Mets. Basically, I did everything a bad Braves fan should do short of cheering for the Phillies. It all started when [...]
