About Coffee and a View
Hi, I’m Rebecca! Traveling has been a part of my life since childhood, but it was only after the return of my first long term solo adventure that I decided that I needed to more consistently dedicate my life to exploring as much of the world as possible. I want to share my journeys along the way and hope to not only inspire fellow female travel lovers to take the leap and find their own adventures, but to create a community of support, strength and sisterhood. Join me on my travels around the world, smelling, tasting and experiencing the wonders that our planet has to offer.
Why the name?
One of my favourite things to do in a new place when I first arrive is to find a small local coffee shop. After ordering whatever caffeinated beverage I watch the locals sipping, I find the best seat in the house ( which at dawn, usually isn’t too difficult) and watch the hustle and bustle of my new temporary home as the world wakes up around me. There’ s nothing quite like the first sip of a good coffee with an indescribable view.
