About Me

Hey! I’m Decca.

 

Born and raised on Mercer Island, Washington, I currently rest in Austin, Texas between my travels around the world. My friends and family know me as an avid traveler, a foodie and recipe developer, a bookworm, a creator, and a health and wellness freak. But, most of all, I am a lover of life. 

 

From as long as I can remember, I’ve had an insatiable curiosity about the world around me. As I grew older, my love for adventure intensified, and I became determined to seize every opportunity to explore new places. 

 

In my 23 years, I have visited 34 countries, on a mission to find the most beautiful corners of our world and the most authentic experiences in each one. I have condensed my top travel tips and best elements of these experiences in designated Travel Guides. In each downloadable Travel Guide PDF, you will find a curation of must-try restaurants, hotels, and activities by destination. Plus, everything-you-need-to-know from safety to local customs, language barriers, and more.

​

Traveling has become an essential part of my identity, shaping my perspectives, broadening my horizons, and fueling my celebration of the world around us. As I explore the world, I am captivated by the interplay of light, color, and composition that surrounds me. Photography and videography enable me to capture the essence of my experiences and share them with others. Through the lens of my camera, I strive to convey the beauty and authenticity of each destination, showcasing the intricate details that make a place truly amazing.

​

Travel, fitness, and food aside, I have another lifelong passion: reading. I love getting lost in a book and make it a goal to read 100 books a year. If you ever need a book recommendation or want to engage in a passionate discussion about literature, I'm your go-to person!
