Hey! I’m Roseanne 🌏

I’m a solo female traveler and Kapampángan 🇵🇭 from California.

I grew up taking trips to the Philippines, and took my first solo trip almost a decade ago.

Now I’m another millennial that doesn’t want to stay put!

You’ll likely see me at a concert, taking in ocean views, or grubbing on all the vegan food.

I write “best of” city guides and practical travel tips & itineraries without all the fluff, plus reviews of vegan food from around the world.
