Your Adventure Starts NOW.

About Jessica Festa

Hi! I’m Jessie, an NYC-based solo female traveler obsessed with outdoor adventure, cultural immersion, and experiences not often shared in guidebooks.

After studying abroad in Australia, I became completely obsessed with travel.

The problem? I could never find anyone to go with!

Instead of waiting around, I decided to start traveling the world alone.

It was the best decision I ever made.

Not only did it give me complete control over my trips, but it helped shape me into the person I am today. I want to help others enjoy the benefits of solo travel too.

My goal:

To empower you to confidently travel solo, whether it’s your first time setting off on your own or you’ve done it before and are looking for your next solo destination.

And because traveling alone isn’t always what Instagram portrays, I vow to share both the good and bad of solo travel.
