What we're about

This group is operated by Purple Hood Adventures, a small travel and lifestyle entrepreneurship begun by female wanderluster, creative blogger, podcaster, Kilimanjaro conqueror and world travel junkie, Marie Elena! We meet both virtually and physically around the country to discuss anything and everything travel and building a life of travel by becoming location and financially independent by doing what we LOVE every day as we roam the planet. Purple Hood Adventures is not just about helping you travel but also sustaining this life you love most! Most of our events include resources and information, a chance to connect with other creatives and travelers, trivia and even prizes! I also host experiences and retreats! The group is all-inclusive, from beginning travelers, aspiring creatives, seasoned nomads, to those just wanting to travel more and everyone in between. Cheers!
