Jessie on a Journey, founded by Jessica Festa in 2011, is an award-winning solo female, offbeat and adventure travel blog helping road warriors go beyond their guidebooks and have more authentic, meaningful experiences.
When Jessie wanted to write a blog post about a person who works full-time, but nevertheless manages to travel a lot, blog contributor author Michele Herrmann chose me! She wrote about how I attempt to balance frequent travel with a full-time career.
This is the post. It’s entitled:
HOW TO TRAVEL (A LOT) WHEN YOU WORK FULL TIME
It starts out like this:
Don’t believe the notion that working 9-to-5 will put your travel dreams on hold! With the right planning and balance, figuring out how to travel with a job is completely possible.
I’m also thrilled the author never once called me a crazy person or a lunatic! So, sanity prevails?
I doubt it.
Speaking of travel, I’m heading to Europe tomorrow, so if my writing is a bit sporadic, you’ll understand.

A New York frequent flyer who elegantly combines her passions for worldwide travel, running a gazillion marathons all over the globe and staying fit ... without sacrificing her fancy for good wine and food.
I’m glad that you liked the piece! Thanks again for participating in this series!
Congrats for the recognition. I enjoy being profiled and contributing to pieces like this.
