About Me

Avid World Traveler, Travel Blogger (With Language Tips), Reader & Travel Memoir Writer

Hello!  Thanks for connecting!  My name is Caryn Stroh, and...well, briefly...I am a woman immersed in a lengthy love affair with travel.  At age 23, I hitchhiked alone through Europe, Australia and New Zealand for two years, and haven’t stopped travelling since.  I prefer a backpack to a suitcase, a hostel or homestay to a 5-star hotel, and a lengthy trip (at least 4 months) to a short luxury one. 
 
After my 2-year journey through Europe, Australia and New Zealand, I came home, got married, and had two babies.  I moved to Kamloops, a mid-sized city in the semi-arid interior of British Columbia and went back to university at age 35 to get a Natural Resource degree (where I learned a little about a lot of things: forests, lakes and rivers, grasslands, fish, animals, and all the things that impact them).
 
My two babies are now grown up and have backpacked with me through Central & South America, and Europe for extended periods of time.  Both have inherited my travel bug.  I did my last solo trip in 2016, after which, I met Aaron who loves travelling as much as I do.  We plan to explore the world together until we can't.  
 
I read voraciously in many genres and have filled many journals with tales of my travels. Journals that have helped me in my current dream - writing my own book! Its draft title is 'Evolution of a Vagabond.' If you'd like to know more about it go to my 'Books' page.
