What this blog is:
Show Up Curious is a diary of new experiences - travel, lifestyle experiments, things I tried because they scared me a little, and things I wanted to do before turning 30. Every post comes with honest thoughts and the actual resources I used, so you can decide whether it's worth your time & money too.

About Me:
Hey, I'm Chevany.
First Timer. Travel Diarist. Your Honest Bestie.
I'm not the person who has always had her passport stamped, always been on a flight or even lived an exciting life.
I’m the person who got her Bachelors degree in Hospitality & Tourism Management, got licensed to Teach English as a Foreign Language (TEFL), and would always plan trips for everyone else, but never myself.
I moved to the United States during the pandemic and eventually my anxiety got so bad I was scared to do anything by myself, even go for walks. About three months before my 29th birthday I decided I was tired of being scared, tired of the 9 to 5, tired of having everything planned out and I wanted spontaneity and fun. I wanted to try random things so that I could finally figure out what I actually enjoyed before I turned 30, whether it be food, music, hobbies, work or destinations . I, like almost everyone else my age, have a folder of screenshots filled with things I wanted to do “someday” but never got around doing them and I’m finally forcing myself to get them done, even if it’s SOLO.
My plan is to start showing up. To new places, new experiences, things that scared me a little, things I never even knew existed. And I started writing down all the good parts, the chaotic parts, and the parts I'd do completely differently next time.
That's this blog. A real-time diary of a woman who decided to GET CURIOUS ABOUT HER OWN LIFE.
What you'll find here:
Honest opinion lifestyle experiments - new habits, hobbies, and ways of doing things, first-time experiences documented so you know what to expect, travel diaries from my actual trips including costs, and steal-ready itineraries with every resource linked.
Who this is for:
Women in the same season of life - curious, figuring it out, trying to build something, and tired of overly polished content that doesn't feel real. If you want someone who'll try Solidcore and say “I’m not coming back”, you're in the right place.
