About Me

Welcome to Little Tales of Wanderlust! I’m so glad you’re here.
This blog is for the dreamers, the adventurers, and the ones standing at the edge of possibility, wondering if they should take the leap. If you’ve ever felt the pull of the open road, the thrill of a solo adventure, or the desire to rewrite the rules of retirement, you’re in the right place.

Who Am I?
I’m Karen, a traveler, storyteller, and advocate for fearless living. I believe travel isn’t just about places—it’s about transformation. I didn’t start my journey as a fearless explorer. In fact, my first steps into solo travel were filled with doubts, nerves, and a long list of “what-ifs.” But I took the leap anyway, and it changed everything.
Over the years, I’ve learned how to navigate the world on my terms—whether it’s solo camping in the wilderness, planning long-term travel, or designing a lifestyle that prioritizes adventure and freedom. Now, I want to help others do the same.

What You’ll Find Here
Little Tales of Wanderlust isn’t just about travel—it’s about building confidence, pushing past fear, and creating a life that truly excites you.

Here, I share:
Solo Travel Tips & Inspiration – Whether you’re brand new to traveling alone or a seasoned nomad, you’ll find insights, practical advice, and stories to empower you.
Alternative Retirement & Lifestyle Design – Forget the traditional retirement plan. Here, we talk about financial independence, retiring abroad, and redefining what “freedom” looks like.
Fear Mastery & Confidence Building – Because sometimes the biggest adventure is the one happening inside your own mind.
Nomadic & Sustainable Travel – Living on the road long-term, minimalist travel tips, and how to embrace the lifestyle without burnout.

My Mission
I want to make solo travel and long-term adventure feel doable, exciting, and fulfilling—not just for the ultra-brave, but for anyone willing to take that first step. You don’t have to be fearless. You just have to be willing to go anyway.
