Ciao! I’m Julie – but you can call me Jules!

I’m the human behind thetraveljules — your not-so-average globetrotter with a passion for slow travel, unforgettable connections, and planning trips that are equal parts dreamy and doable.

Born with a suitcase in one hand and a cappuccino in the other (okay, not literally), I’ve wandered through sun-soaked European streets, hiked misty trails in South America, and chatted with locals over street food from Asia to Africa.

When I’m not exploring, I’m planning your next adventure, guiding curious souls through hidden gems, or coaching fellow wanderlusters to turn their dreams into departure dates.

I love storytelling, meeting people from all walks of life, and the magic that happens when you step out of your comfort zone. Also: I never say no to pasta.

I’m all about real connections — whether it’s over coffee in a tiny town or through a message across the world.

Have a question? Curious about a destination? Want to know what travel shoes I swear by?
