Meet Courtney

YOUR GO-TO GIRL FOR ALL THINGS TRAVEL

Hi, I’m Courtney Olivia, a North Carolina native & Raleigh-based travel blogger who left my corporate job in tech sales in 2024 to pursue my love of travel and passion to help others do the same.

My mission isn’t just to showcase unique and breathtaking destinations, hotels, and restaurants, I also want to encourage you to live your best life possible! Having married my high school sweetheart and having 3 kids it was important for me to always remember ME. I want to inspire you to do the same and take the solo trip, wear that outfit that makes you feel most like you, and make as many memories with your kids, big and small.

While originally my Instagram started as a digital dumping ground for my pixelated selfies & kids parties from my iPhone 6, nowadays I have an audience of travel-obsessed individuals across my social media pages and blog.  Fortunately, I’ve since upgraded my camera and millennial skills and take pride in creating shareable and save worthy travel guides to add to your ever-growing bucket list.

The short answer is, “just do it!” If you have something you’re passionate or knowledgable about and already share information with others you can do it. Don’t let the fear of you’re too late or it will be too hard to manage both keep you from your dreams. What may start as part time can easily grow into a pathway to getting paid to do what you love.
