Travel More Efficiently - so you can enjoy every day with less stress!

Cathy with Cat in Madeira

Hi, my name is Cat!

Despite my scatterbrained nature, I think of my ADHD as my superpower. I have always been good at organizing my life to avoid living in chaos. In 2018 a tragedy turned my life upside down. I uprooted my life, did countless hours of research, and since then have explored 22+ countries and remote islands on 4 Continents (so far) and 49 of the United States. I hope to inspire you, take a lot of the guesswork out of your planning, and maybe share some laughs along the way - one international blunder (and cat) at a time! It’s been a wild ride (including owning an Abandoned Zoo) but I am excited to share my journey (and extensive notes) with all of you!!
