where travel meets the journey within: pack light, travel deeply

Hi, I am

Nicole Elgin

I’m a California born, Hawai’i based travel blogger & tropical island aficionado. Through my ten years of travel, I have visited over 80 islands, and countless seaside countries scattered across the globe. In my experience, travel is a transformative force to connect more deeply with the world around you and yourself. Though you’ll most often find me enjoying nature and seeking serenity on land and sea, I love the unexpected connections & friendships that come with unfamiliar places. Sometimes my travels are luxurious, and sometimes they’re more unexpected. I’m an unapologetic sucker for romantic hideaways, unique places to stay, and off-the-beaten-path destinations. Minimalist packing & travel hacking are my jam. I’m committed to traveling both lightly & deeply: light in my impact & deep in my experiences.

I’m happy you’re here!
