Start Here

Still En Route is a travel blog for people who still have places to go – and who want to travel well, thoughtfully, and on their own terms. It’s written from the perspective of someone actually doing it, not chasing trends or pretending every trip goes smoothly.

What you’ll find on Still En Route

  • Travel experiences and practical advice – what’s worth it, what’s not, and what I’d do again
  • Thoughtful takes having the right travel mindset
  • Looking for a way to fund the journey? You might find some ideas here.
  • A sense of humor about all of it – because taking this stage too seriously is exhausting

If you’d like a quick introduction to why this site exists – and what I mean by being “still en route” – this post is the best place to begin.


Consider this your boarding pass. No itinerary required.

Until the next stop (preferably with snacks),
