LET’S TRAVEL
THE WORLD
welcome!
Hola, I am Karen. I am a single, fifty-one-year-old Latin American female traveling this beautiful world solo! Well, not entirely on my own; God is with me! As King David assures us in Psalm 56:9, God promises to be with all His children. I am a witness that God never leaves our side. He has shown me His immense love and continues to do so every single day.
All my travels are about embracing and focusing on the meaning of Slow Living. Let’s embrace simplicity, savor the present moment, and find inner peace one destination at a time!
A journey that began in my heart and mind over ten years ago was finally coming to fruition. I had been dreaming of visiting Switzerland for a long time.
A solo female traveler’s guide to Zermatt, Switzerland—where to stay, how to get there, what to do, and why this car-free Alpine village feels so safe.
As December rolled in, I found myself in one of my all-time favorite cities: New York City. But visiting NYC during the holiday season? That’s pure magic.
As a solo female traveler exploring the enchanting northeastern region of New England, I found myself falling in love with Massachusetts — and especially the iconic island of Martha’s Vineyard. This charming destination quickly earned a spot in my top 10 favorite travel experiences.
Rhode Island blew me away—literally and figuratively! For this journey, I chose to stay in Newport and branch out to explore nearby towns. I visited during the first week of March, and Newport greeted me with cold, fierce winds.
It’s funny how life changes our perspectives. History used to be my least favorite subject in school—I never would have picked up a history book for fun. If I read anything about history, it was only because a teacher or professor made me.
A winter getaway in Cabo with friends is an absolute must. While I love solo travel, I cherish the opportunity to travel with family and close friends occasionally. This past January, I took a trip to Los Cabos, Mexico, with some of my closest girlfriends, which was full of unforgettable experiences.
Embark on a scenic road trip from Washington to Lake Kelowna, BC! Enjoy breathtaking mountain views, lush vineyards, and crystal-clear waters along the way. Discover charming towns, wineries, and outdoor adventures in the heart of the Okanagan Valley. Perfect for nature lovers and road trip enthusiasts!
Canada - Words fail me when I try to describe Canada's beauty. Often, we think glitz, glamour, and noise are necessary for something to be considered classy. However, simplicity, humility, understated elegance, and silence are the true marks of class. Canada embodies this clandestine, timeless, classy beauty that leaves a lasting impression.
I absolutely fell in love with Colorado's summer side—from the striking reds and coppers of Gateway to the lush greens and blues of Vail Valley, the beauty of this state continues to amaze me. No matter the season —whether blanketed in snow or bathed in summer hues, it’s a place that offers new horizons at every turn. I hope my experiences inspire you to explore this beautiful state and discover its magic for yourself.
Nebraska, pleasantly surprising! I thought it was a state that was smacked in the middle of the Great Plains with not much to see or do. It is small, but it packed a punch. Historic charm with a modern flair.
This is my third time to visit Oklahoma. My first visit was in 2021, when I explored Tulsa and Pawhuska. That trip came right after the loss of my furry baby, Coco, and it was exactly what my soul needed during that sad time. The experience was peaceful and comforting.
