Welcome to TravelerTale, where wanderlust meets cozy living. Whether you're booking your next trip or styling your tiny apartment, we’ve got real-life tips and honest stories to help you do both beautifully—and on a budget.
I’m a travel lover, homebody, and proud thrift-store furniture rescuer based in California. I started TravelerTale because I believe life feels better when your passport has stamps and your apartment has personality. After years of hopping between tiny rentals and budget trips (ask me about that night in a Paris hostel with no Wi-Fi and a broken heater), I’ve learned how to live beautifully—without spending a fortune. This blog is where I share real travel tips, cozy decor ideas, and the occasional story about decorating disasters turned design wins. If you're into practical advice, honest recaps, and maybe a few too many throw pillows, you're in the right place.
