I’ve always been drawn to two things: books and the idea of exploring the world.

For a long time, those two lived separately. Books were a way to imagine places, and travel was a way to experience them.

At some point, I started wondering what would happen if I combined both.

That’s how this journey began.

I set out to read one book from every country, focusing on stories written by women, to discover voices, perspectives, and experiences I might not encounter otherwise.

What started as a simple reading challenge slowly turned into something much bigger.

This space is where reading and traveling come together.

Here, I share the books I read, the places I visit, and the connections between them.

Some destinations I discover through stories first. Others I experience in real life and understand more deeply through books.

Along the way, I realized how much I enjoy the process of planning, tracking, and organizing these journeys.

That’s why I also create simple, thoughtful tools to help you track your reading, plan your travels, and design your own version of this journey.

For me, this is about slowing down and experiencing the world more intentionally.

Not just seeing places, but understanding them through stories, perspectives, and lived experiences.

If you love books, travel, or the idea of combining both, you’re in the right place.

You can follow along, find inspiration, or start your own journey, one story at a time.
