What is the Journal of Wanderlust…?

Wanderlust is a word that means a strong desire to explore the world. I am Emma and this is my journal of my travels abroad. This is not your average travel blog. I am not here to give you hotel and resort recommendations nor am I a backpacker going on crazy adventures in the wild. I believe in travel as a form of education to become a better version of yourself and a better world citizen. My travels focus on getting to know the local cultures and what we can learn from them. I also have a passion for music, food, and history which are major themes in my travels. Follow along as I live out my dream of traveling the world and writing about it.
