Ayyyy welcome back to your fave travel podcast. Thanks for tuning in and getting yourself ready to make some MOVES with me. Let's get it!
In Season 3 Episode 10, I am joined by Sammy aka "Travel w/ Sammy." Sammy was born in the vibrant city of Miami but spent most of her childhood and formative years in Dallas, Texas. Growing up in a place that blended Southern charm with big-city energy, she developed a deep curiosity for the world beyond her hometown. That curiosity eventually led her to take a leap into solo travel at just 19 years old, embarking on what would become a life-changing journey. Her first solo adventure took her to Puerto Escondido, Mexico, a breathtaking coastal town known for its laid-back surf culture, stunning beaches, and vibrant community of travelers. It was there that she truly fell in love with the freedom of solo travel—the thrill of exploring new places, meeting inspiring people, and pushing herself outside her comfort zone.
That initial experience ignited a passion that would shape her future. Since then, Sammy has traveled the world, turning her love for adventure into a full-time career as a travel content creator and entrepreneur. She is the founder of Mañana Retreats, a luxury women’s retreat company designed to help women build confidence, reconnect with themselves, and form lifelong friendships through travel. Through her social media platforms and curated retreat experiences, she inspires women to step out of their daily routines, embrace adventure, and discover the transformative power of exploring the world. For Sammy, travel isn’t just about seeing new places—it’s about personal growth, connection, and creating unforgettable experiences that last a lifetime.
