I’m Isabella, the blogger and traveler you came here to learn more about and I hope you’re here to follow me on my journey!
I’m an energetic, free spirited, 30-something who gave up my high paying and stable government job, my nice apartment, and saying good-bye to family and friends to backpack the unknown.
My adventure commences back in 2010 with a flight Costa Rica.
I’m looking forward to the never ending escapade of chicken buses, hitch hiking, couch surfing, and biking through Central and South America.
My initial plan sees me traversing Central America then South America for the majority then off to Europe.

With over 1000km of coastline, the country is a popular destination for scuba divers, fishermen, sailors and beach lovers. The climate is tropical, and even cold nights are rare to come by.
