Language learning & Travel

Hi, I’m Kathryn!
Born and raised in Los Angeles, currently living in Dallas. When I’m not listening to a podcast in Japanese or reading a book in Spanish, I’m making plans for my next budget trip.





This May, I took my FIRST international trip (since I was nine years old, anyway), and it taught me so much about what (and what not!) to pack. I made some good decisions, plenty of mistakes, and I want to share everything so we can all learn from it!
Listen up, advanced Spanish learners! We all know nothing can be more frustrating than trying – and failing – to find good stuff to watch. That’s why I decided to compile an ongoing list of my top Spanish-language content recommendations.
Textbooks are too boring, you don’t have the time or money to commit to a class, and a certain app with an owl logo isn’t getting you anywhere. There has to be a better way.
This 2025, I’m here to share with you the caramel-dipped fruits of my labor, i.e. over a dozen awesome fall activity ideas for families – or 21+ singles – to put to the test this season.Â
