postcards capture memories & tell the stories of our adventures

a little bit about me…
Hello there!
I’m Taylor the blogger behind Postcard From Taylor. When I was a kid, I loved to watch Samantha Brown on the Travel Channel or House Hunters International, and picture myself exploring the faraway places I saw on the television.
Today, as a 30-something-year-old, travel has become a true passion. For me, travel is the draw to something fresh and unfamiliar. It’s the escape from mundane routines. It’s both daunting and exciting at the same time!
I created Postcard From Taylor to ease that daunting feeling while inspiring more adventure, near and far from home.
