The person behind the passport

Welcome!

My friends kept asking me for travel recommendations so… I created this blog instead! I'm a travel enthusiast & backpacker based out of San Francisco, CA. Getawayguide is where I write about what I actually found — the best beaches, pristine alpine lakes, once in a lifetime experiences, most memorable hostels or the boring travel logistics.
