Traveler's Spotlight - Katie Zweber of Two Wandering Soles
Meet Katie, co-author of the travel blog TwoWanderingSoles.com. Below, Katie shares a few insights into her life as a full-time world traveler.
ZG: What single travel experience has most impacted who you are as a person?
Katie: Studying abroad in Italy was the first time I went overseas, and it opened (literally and figuratively) a whole new world to me. My first long backpacking trip (3 months in South America) was also a defining experience because it showed me that traveling doesn't have to be expensive and short term.
ZG: What single travel experience was the most difficult/challenging for you?
Katie: I think one of the hardest things that I've encountered while traveling isn't in the travel itself, but it is missing out on things at home - births, deaths, weddings, holidays, and nights out with friends or family. Sometimes it's hard missing so many of those big events.
ZG: Which world culture most resonates with you and your lifestyle?
Katie: I am so curious about cultures around the world, and many draw me in. I loved immersing myself in the culture when I lived in South Korea, and I learned a lot about the rich cultures around Southeast Asia. But I think I am especially drawn to the cultures in Latin American countries. I love the closeness with nature and strong family ties.
ZG: What does responsible travel mean to you?
Katie: I am passionate about responsible travel, and have even dedicated my travel blog to "ethical travel on a budget". I've seen so many of the negative effects travelers can have on an environment, a culture, animals and people. I believe that it is 100% possible to travel consciously and on a budget by doing a bit of research. I try to respect the culture of the place I'm visiting, and support companies that are doing the right thing for their communities. Animal tourism is almost always a bad thing, so I usually do extra amounts of research when it comes to interacting with animals. I try to create less waste and remember that I am visiting someone else's home.
ZG: What, if any, travel location do you return to regularly? What draws you back?
Katie: I really haven't returned to many of the places I've visited abroad - not because I don't want to, but because there are so many more places I would like to see. Two countries that I would love to return to soon are Colombia and Ecuador someday. But I think the place that I go back to the most often is northern Minnesota. With 10,000 lakes (including Lake Superior, the biggest in the world!), I love hiking and camping in that area. I go back every chance I'm back in Minnesota.
ZG: What’s one simple travel hack you’ve learned that you are particularly proud to share?
Katie: I don't know if it's a hack per se, but I love traveling with solid shampoo. Lush makes a great, all-natural bar of shampoo that last 3 months, takes up little space, will never leak, and gets through airport security without a problem!
Katie and her husband Ben are not your usual twenty-somethings. Shortly after getting married they quit their comfortable jobs to work and travel their way around the world.
