START WORK EXCHANGING

Maptrekking is a slow travel blog that helps you have meaningful travel experiences by responsibly immersing yourself in a culture.

After traveling extensively, I realize it’s not about how many countries or continents you’ve been to. My most fulfilling travel moments have happened when I was slow traveling because it gave me the chance to dig deeper into a culture.

MY UNIQUE STORY

I’ve come a long way from growing up in an impoverished town of 500 people in the Appalachian mountains. I never imagined that I’d start a slow travel blog and be living a digital nomad lifestyle.

For the last 7 years I’ve lived abroad in Scotland, Ireland, and currently Albania – but maybe you’re wondering how I got to this point. Well, let me tell you it’s a crazy story!
