About Julianna
Julianna is a travel blogger and creator of 'The Discoveries Of.' A travel writer who retrained as a lawyer and worked in London before going back to her original passion of travel writing.
Julianna took the six weeks to spend time travelling in Central America and did a road trip up the West Coast of the US, before returning home to the UK.
“Trying to be aware of my own feelings and my own thoughts a lot more rather than doing things automatically.”

- 3 Lessons learned from travel and reverse culture shock
- There is never a good time to do something. You need to make the time happen.
