Travelista Tuesday - Soullo Traveler Geena Ashlee
As a self-described Oakland girl living her life as a foreigner I wanted to feature Geena Ashlee as not
only a traveler but more importantly a global citizen. She doesn't simply visit the beautiful countries
or exotic locations she breathes new life into them - makes them better with her perspective and
almost makes you jealous you didn't go there yourself. As graduate of California State, Los Angeles
Geena started to trek the world and document those trips in her blog the Soul•lo Traveler. A clever
double entendre title Geena travels solo, by herself sometimes halfway across the world but not as a
timid visitor but as a soulful spirit ready for a new adventure. What drew me to her blog was the
sheer joy I had seen as she traveled to these culturally specific places. She's knowledgeable about the
history of the places she's inhabited and in turn we benefit from her insight. She highlights the
beauty of these pockets of the world not with over-glamorized photos on Instagram but with real
moments. Her laughing among her friends walking down a dirt road, her gazing at a waterfall, or
her simply relaxing on hammock. Ironically you can say she puts your soul at rest by see hers come
alive. So join in the journey with her as she ventures across the world and yes, be inspired to travel
as well.
