Welcome to my little corner of the internet!
I’m Crystal, your travelbetic bestie (that’s travel + diabetic, in case you were wondering 😉). My life of wanderlust came to a screeching halt when I got my diabetes diagnosis. Talk about an existential crisis! I was faced with some scary thoughts: Can I still hike? Is it safe to be miles from civilization? Will I have to trade in my boots for a life of, well… less adventure?
Spoiler alert: The answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!
As I scoured the inner reaches of the web, what I came up with was disappointing. I quickly found that, although travel blogs are plentiful, sooo few represented someone like me. That’s why I started this blog. It’s a place for me to share my all my favorite things – with my annoying little sidekick. And, give to you what I so desperately needed when my life got turned upside down. Think of this blog as the ultimate travel guide for the insulin-challenged explorer.
