Postcards from South America (literally) 📧

Happy Tuesday! I'm coming to you from South America where I've been traveling for the last week. It's been quite the adventure and I'll share all the fun details when I'm home. But if you can't wait, my Patreon members already know what I've been up to. I've been sharing behind-the-scenes updates, photos, little moments from the trip, and stories that won't make it into my YouTube videos or Instagram posts. If you've ever wanted a more personal look at my travels, that's exactly what Patreon is for. It's where I share the parts of my trips that don't always make it onto social media. I also have a higher postcard tier, and it's my favorite perk. For just a few extra dollars each month, I'll send you a real postcard from my travels four times a year. I love sending a little piece of the places I'm visiting to people who are following along. If you've been thinking about joining, you can use code WELCOME for 50% off your first month if you join my Patreon by August 31. You'll also need to be in the higher tier on August 31 if you want to receive the September postcard! As always, you can follow along with my current travels on Instagram and Facebook, or reply to this email if you want to chat! Have a great week :) Sarah Some links in this email are affiliate links, meaning I may earn a commission if you click the link or make a purchase through the link. This is at no extra cost to you.

Travel Resources Travel Insurance: SafetyWing is my go-to for travel insurance because it covers so much, is easy to purchase for days or months, and is affordable.
