Unlike many bloggers I do not own a professional camera, in fact I wouldn’t even know what to do with it nor could I afford one.

The Truth of the Single Traveling Girl

Ok so I’m finally getting personal with you all. The TRUTH (from my perspective) about the single girl who travels. If you must know I’m currently on the train from Florence back to Rome.

We’re always so quick to talk about the positive experiences we have while traveling, but fail to mention some of the negatives.
