Wish You Were Here, But We Don’t

Because Travel Isn’t Always a Dream… But It’s Always a Story.

Travel influencers will have you believing it’s all sunrise hikes and perfect beach days—until your flight gets canceled (again), your hostel smells like regret, and you realize being Black abroad is an experience nobody prepared you for.

Welcome to the unfiltered side of travel.

I’m Jasmine—a traveler with big opinions, questionable life choices, and an unapologetic love for food, culture, and calling out the absurdity of life on the road.
