About the Girl

adventure and the girl

Hi there!

I’m Jayme, the girl behind the adventures. If you’re looking for travel and fashion inspiration, encouragement as you walk out your faith journey with the Lord, or everyday reminders to live with zeal, you’re in the right place.

When I started this blog in 2017, I was single but didn’t let that stop me from adventuring and traveling solo all over the world. Many of my earlier posts recap that season of my life.

My very first blog post explains why I live a life of adventure. Part II gives a clearer picture of my perspective on life and my relationship with God. *Spoiler alert* It involves my ten year battle with bulimia, how I recovered, and how I learned to live again.


Interested in starting your own blog to share your story? I am a happy WordPress* user—and WordPress affiliate.

In 2020, I met my now husband, John—a man who also loves to travel, hike, and embrace the beauty of everyday life. Together, we travel often and enjoy being active and adventurous together.

Home is Knoxville, TN, where I’ve fully embraced my inner mountain girl after growing up in Michigan and living in Florida for a number of years. Tennessee feels like home!

I thank God for every day I’m given, every blessing I don’t deserve or didn’t see coming, and every opportunity to see this great big world He created. I’m also grateful for the connections I’ve made and lessons I’ve learned along the way.

Thank you for being here as I share what I’ve learned, where I’ve been, and things that make me smile.
