Hi! I’m Happy Helen. I am an entrepreneur, a world traveler, and a student pilot on her way to earning her pilot’s license. Between my degree in Journalism and my love for travel and aviation, I love to help others with any helpful tips on places I’ve been to!

I also have my own personal training business called “Happy Helen Fitness” since 2019. My full time job is driving around to clients’ homes and helping them achieve their health and wellness goals.

My entrepreneurial spirit transfers over in all aspects of my life, including my love for travel. I believe in taking charge of your own happiness and achieving your goals, regardless of what challenges may come your way. For instance, if you always wanted to travel the world but noticed you’ve been waiting around for the perfect time or travel buddy, then maybe it’s time to step out of your comfort zone and go alone! It may not be for everyone, but I think sometimes we fear the dangers of solo travel more than we need to.

I am no stranger to physical challenges: I’m an American Ninja Warrior, Competitive Olympic Lifter, Ice & Marathon Swimmer, and also a rock climber for almost 10 years. My next challenge: Conquering all 7 Wonders of the World! I’ve also been to most countries in Europe, many countries in South/Central America and slowly making my way through Asia.

Like women who are afraid to lift weights, I want to help other women gain confidence and insight on how much fun it can be to travel solo. If I can do it, you can too!
