Where This Blog Will Go

Hi! I’m Avery and welcome to my blog “Where Avery Goes”. I’m thrilled that you’re here and can’t wait to see what adventures this blog inspires for you. I’ll be giving you all a run down of my travels from the very beginning stages of planning and packing, to experiencing life-changing and eye-opening journeys all over the world. 

Although travel has many incredible elements, my favorite thing about travel is the broad worldview it fosters and expands. This is my why for traveling. Our world is overflowing with awe-inspiring sights, cultures, and people. It’s important to me to involve myself in as many of these as possible. 

With that being said, let's get into what you can look out for on this blog!

Destinations

Well, I mean, it is a travel blog so we’re going to get into the actual destinations! Every time I go somewhere new my mind is blown yet again, the planet’s diversity is phenomenal. And if that’s not enough, I then get to go and actually make memories in those places, it makes for a lot of “pinch me” moments. 

So here’s the deal, under the “destinations” tab in the menu bar, I’ll create a section for each place I travel. That way, all the blog posts written about any given destination will be grouped together for easy travel planning. You’ll find posts such as “My Favorite Place for Crepes in Paris”, under the “Paris” section, to “What to Wear when Visiting The Matterhorn” under the “Switzerland” section. 

Travel Tips & Tricks

Honestly, travel can be over-glamourized, leaving you wondering if it was such a good idea to come all this way just to miss a boat and wander around in a hot, crowded museum. Let’s face the facts: travel isn't all fun and games all the time. On the bright side however, there’s a lot you can do to avoid not-so-good situations. 

My goal in the tips and tricks section is to help you know what small actions to take to make big differences in the quality of your trip. But no matter what, something unexpected will inevitably come up on your trip, so my first word of advice would be to throw expectations out the window. Going into your adventure just excited to be there and see what happens will be your best bet.

Food Finds

Now here’s the truth: I love food, and that means finding the best places to eat. So you can expect a good deal of food content around here. Food is one of my favorite mediums to experience the local culture, and there is absolutely no gatekeeping here. I won’t let you miss out on some of the best hidden gems around.

Let your hours of restaurant review reading be put to rest, I’ve got your back. Oh you’re going to Italy? Well, you have to try this rigatoni. Looking for the best magret de canard (duck breast) in Paris? Look no further, this will do the trick. 

Takeaways

At the end of the day, your traveling really comes down to the feelings you felt and the memories you made. In the “takeaways” section of this blog, I’ll give a general overview of each trip I go on, it will be a little bit different from other blog posts. Instead of keeping the post focused on one topic or giving little details about everything, I’ll talk about how the place made me feel and what I think the most unique or special part of the destination is. 

I hope this section gives you a chance to hear about the overall vibes of a place you want to visit. As a disclaimer though, these are my thoughts and experiences. A place could be totally different for you, but that’s the beauty of it all isn’t it? We all have distinct feelings and views in everything we do and thank goodness for that. 

Conclusion

No matter where you go or who you go with, being in a new place is bound to offer unforgettable moments you’ll cherish forever. I’m here to help with the pursuit of these moments as much as I can.

Happy travels,

-Avery
