About
Hi and Welcome to The Travelin Doc,
I am an Internal Medicine and Pediatrics physician, wife, aunt, mentor and wannabe vegan with a love for travel, food, fashion and healthy living.
I grew up in St. Croix, USVI and have been traveling for as long as remember. I have enjoyed living in six states, one foreign country and one US territory. I have traveled to five of the seven continents.
Currently all my trips are as a couple with my husband. I book all our travel, accomodations, activities, transport, events, etc. Activities are booked prior to travel, on arrival or even spontaneously. I would like to share my travel, adventures, tips, inspiration and resources with you.
I am adventurous and I love volunteering, visiting new places, meeting new people, trying new recipes, learning and trying new things.
I believe in being at peace with myself, enjoying the simple things in life, having balance in my life and the time to do the things I love doing. I have taken charge of my life. I am doing it my way and I am living my dream!
