Gennean is based out of Nashville currently, where she is a digital content creator. She is also a travel planner. With that, she designed The Simple Guide to (Solo) Travel. This is filled with digital travel guides and all the help you need to start your trip. Gennean also has a podcast called, Wild Hearts with Gennean. Here, she talks about her faith, traveling, and simple living.

Firstly, how did Gennean get the money to travel for so long? She tackles that obstacle in this podcast. She reveals that she worked 60-70 hours a week to become debt free as well as save money to explore the world. In the podcast, Gennean explains that she kept feeling a tug to travel. Later on, she realized it was God leading her to go. Specifically, she uncovers how much God can move in your life when you are traveling solo.

On top of seeing God in a new way, Gennean also learned more about herself. Her excursion allowed her to become more in tune with her body. She now knows how to listen to what her body needs. For example, when to rest or when to exercise. Gennean’s biggest lesson on the trip was that she is far more capable of things than she thinks. In addition to that, she grew as a person by meeting so many new people and improving in small talk. Lastly, Gennean learned the vastness of God. She understood more about who God is and His characteristics.

Overall, if you are considering traveling, go! Gennean is the prime example to push yourself and go for it. You will grow as a person and in your faith. She can guide you in budgeting, preparing, and specifically where to visit. There is no better time to travel than in your twenties. If you want to see the world, start with these two questions.
