Who I am: Travel + Photography Expert

Hi! I’m Sarah, and I’ve been traveling and living abroad since 2012.

From archaeology (I have a MA) and history, to photography and video in Israel and beyond, I’m here to help you travel more, take better photos, and solo travel with confidence, as well as learning more about the places and people you’re visiting.

Mukikapup is a vagabond character my grandfather used to tell stories about that inspired this blog:

Adventure in the USA: Posts on USA travel
Explore Photography: Posts about travel photography
Discover International Travel: Posts about travel around the world (outside of the USA)

My Favorite Travel Resources:

Affiliate Disclosure

Accommodation: I use Booking.com because they find me the best deals and give more security for booking changes.
Car Rentals: Discover Cars is a rental car aggregate that I use to find the best deals (I always check reviews on each company).
Travel Insurance: I’ve been using Allianz for years and always recommend them!
Flight Finder: WayAway is a travel aggregate that’s worth checking in addition to Google Flights when you’re looking for the best deals.
Tours: I’ve been using Viator.com for years and find the best tours with them – Check out my Viator Shop with all my favorite recommendations here!
Airport Transfers: KiwiTaxi is a great place to find airport transfers in many countries in addition to Viator.
Travel Credit Card: I use the Chase Sapphire Preferred and recommend it for beginners, because the yearly fee is low and if you do at least one trip per year, it’s worth it!
eSIM: I just used Airalo eSIM in French Polynesia, and will definitely be using it again to avoid issues like I had in Cyprus with the SIM not working.
