Exploration & Travel

Some of the best moments of my life have happened when I stopped planning and started wandering. A wrong turn in a quaint community. A conversation with a stranger at a market stall. A sunrise I almost slept through. Travel has a way of cracking you open, quietly, beautifully, if you let it.

Here at Moments Over Perfection, this page is dedicated to the joy of going places - whether that's across an ocean or just a few towns over. As a woman in my fifties living in the beautiful PNW, I've learned that travel isn't really about ticking off destinations. It's about showing up with curiosity, shedding what's familiar, and discovering something true about the world and yourself along the way.
This is a space for anyone who's ever felt the pull to explore but talked themselves out of it. Together, we'll dig into:

​

•  Solo travel tips that make going it alone feel freeing, not scary

• Destination guides built around real, meaningful experiences

• Mindful travel ideas that invite you to slow down and soak it all in

• Stories from the road...the messy, magical, life-changing kind 

You don't need the perfect itinerary to have an unforgettable trip. You just need to go. Let's explore together.
