13 Months Into Homelessness in WNC-Currently in Georgia~Rachel Holbert Jones

It has been awhile. I’ve quite frankly been doing nothing for the past few weeks because once I left Western North Carolina and went to upstate South Carolina (I’m currently in Georgia) I decided to explore, take pictures, hike and enjoy myself. I haven’t had a break in over a year and except for going to my storage unit every once in awhile I’ve been vegetating in WNC with my two companions.…

Traveling Solo on an Expedition Cruise and Making Friends

A lot of people are surprised when I tell them that I travel alone. But I love it. Sure, it gets lonely sometimes, but I get to do whatever I want to do whenever I want to do it! The photo above is of the friends I made on my expedition cruise to Antarctica. Lucy and I were roommates and assigned by the ship, so we were lucky because we both got along really well and ate every meal together on…

I'm taking a solo trip to CDMX next month but despite having a Spanish tutor from there giving me valuable insight on top of doing my own research and staying in a very safe area (nevermind being raised as a woman and the instilled fear making me even more careful) I still can't talk about my plans with anyone because I'll never hear the end of it

For as long as I live, I will continue to chase waterfalls

[femrodeeeeo]

I think this is a great idea. While I've found that flight attendants do a pretty good job at keeping people in check and have no qualms about kicking people off, I do think there are a lot of women and girls who may not feel confident enough to report sexual assault in the first place :(

Rundown House for Rent in Old Fort, NC: Hazards and Insanity-Rachel Holbert Jones

Just to be clear: This is not something I’m offering for rent. Boy, what a find this is. It has no running water, no electricity, no indoor plumbing. The owner says renter must be self-sufficient and figure out a way to dispose of his waste. I guess doing in the yard like a dog is unacceptable. He says if the renter wants to park a vehicle, he must clean out a space to park it. He is basically…

Nature Vacations: Biophilia and Wellbeing

In today’s fast-paced world, more and more people are interested in taking nature vacations to get away from busy everyday life and get back in touch with nature. An interesting part of this trend is the idea of biophilia, which says that humans have a natural connection to nature. So, this article will look at the basics of biophilia and how it can make us feel better and also suggest some…

I have traveled to more than 25 countries, territories and regions (that should be technically considered countries). I have dealt with straight up racism traveling abroad, though the levels vary. Sometimes it’s staring, other times it’s hair touching or rude questions and comments. Most of the time it is Islamophobia that gets me stopped in the airport.

Yup, you heard that right.

I was born in a Muslim country and was later adopted by an American couple. My biological family is Muslim as far as I can tell. And I have Kazakhstan listed in my passport as country of origin. Which means I have gotten stopped in most airports for some reason or another. I was once pulled aside for a full body search in Hong Kong. When I was 8 years old. When I travel, I carry copies of my Kazakh birth certificate, American birth certificate, passport, whatever visas and travel/vaccination documents I need, because I have been stopped in transit because of these documents at some point in time.

I am somewhat protected by my dad’s last name, which is a somewhat common Norwegian last name, especially in America. The first time I traveled abroad solo was the first time I had to take into consideration how visibly Jewish I wanted to be. I didn’t bring my copy of “Ashkenazi Herbalism” to Türkiye, because my mom was worried I would get stopped and searched in the airport (like I normally do). I also left my hamsa with Hebrew on it at home for the same reason. I also took into consideration how queer I wanted to present myself. So I took my pronouns down from my social media accounts.

I am preparing to go to Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan this summer, and I’m running through the same list of questions. Do I keep my brightly dyed hair? Do I leave my hamsa and Magen David at home? Do I take down anything on my social media that screams queer Jew?

I know some of this is just my anxiety talking, because I have traveled for the last 20 years with very little serious issues. I can brush off casual comments about my “not quite Chinese eyes” (actual quote from a guy on my team in Türkiye) or the typical questions about where I’m “really from”. It has to be a real good insult for me to take it seriously, because I grew up in a fairly toxic school environment. So I’m sure I’ll be fine, especially since two months of this trip, I will be very far away from modern civilization. The only people I have to worry about are the people I’ll be living with during that time and I can handle American racism and stupidity.

Theres this tecato (heroine addict) that walks up & down this town, he has said things to me past visits, like hey girl i see you walk a lot, and mentions exactly where ive been, harmless or so i thought.

Was on the balcony of my air bnb yesterday talking to my sis on the phone, i usually dont sit there as it faces the main road, but it was a long convo.

Anyway he sees me, now he knows where im staying, so he begins shouting at me that id better come down this very minute, in a threatening manner. The day prior he called me a piece of shit because i ignored his pspsps cat call.

So i went out to eat that evening, walking back to air bnb i see his crooked walk 2 blocks ahead of me. He turns into the little alley that leads to where im staying. There is no reason for him to be there. I began to have an anxiety attack.

These streets are dark and no one was around. I stayed a watching for a good 10 minutes, decided id go to my cousins house since i have the keys, was prepared to stay in his rustic mancave if need be.

I saw this old man sitting outside on a chair, chilling, explained my situation, he agreed that hed walk me home.

He made sure i got in safely, hand on my heart i know dude was hiding in the shadows, i felt it. Im so appreciative that this stranger was willing to help.

Had a hard time sleeping, rechecked locks way too many times. Every noise had me jumping out of my skin.

As much as i love this little town i know that i need to pick a less isolated area. I dont even wear anything crazy but still feel eyes on me. Flight in a few hours, had a great time otherwise, was a lesson, thankfully with a good ending

Bring back the days where lying in the grass on a warm summers day and just watching the leaves rustle was enough. When sticking our feet in the sand and listening to the waves lap in was okay. When not everything had to be 'productive'. We are not here to tick off societies checklist. We are here to live. We are here to breathe in the moments of beauty and joy and wonder around us. To spend some days dancing in adventure and others melting into the world with nothing but the moment on our minds. We are allowed to simply ‘be’.
