Welcome To Girl With The Passport
My name is Kelly and I am the quirky (you’ve been warned) solo traveler behind the girl with the passport. In 2017 I got tired of my boring 9-5 job and thought, “geez, there’s got to be more to life than living for the weekend”. Am I right?
So here I am, living my dreams and hoping to inspire you to do the same “Pepperjam Verification”.
Now was it easy? No.
Has there been a ton of chaos along the way? Yup!
Would I change a thing? Never!
Is it impossible? Absolutely not!
