What happens when a 17-year-old books a solo backpacking trip to Iceland before ever starting college? In this episode, Gabby—now a full-time travel creator and host of The Young Travelers Podcast—shares how one brave leap led to over 55 countries and a deeply intentional life shaped by solo travel.

We explore:

Her first solo trip (with no sleeping bag!)

How she uses solo travel as self-care

Navigating the world as a Black, first-generation traveler

Her mantra: “Seek risk, seize opportunity, see the world”

Whether you're just starting out or already planning your next adventure, Gabby’s story is packed with insight, humor, and heart.
