Hello, I’m Julie. And this is my inspirational life. A little travel, a little spice, some good wine, and a whole lot of pictures. Being alone can create profound adventures!

A bottle of wine, a warm coat, a travel blanket, my sunglasses, and a handsome puppy.

We are consumed with preparation and then disappointed in lame adventures. Some of my best adventures were last minute with minimal equipment. Learn to be spontaneous and live a little!
