About Me

Julia, the author of the blog, standing over the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, UK.

Hi, I’m Julia! Welcome to Bookish Wayfarer, my book, travel, and lifestyle blog.

I grew up in a small New Hampshire town, and when I didn’t have my nose in a book, I whittled away the hours daydreaming about one day venturing beyond the bounds of my townlet. At age 19, I achieved that dream when I traveled across the country with my brother, and from that point forward, I was hooked. The more I saw of this world, the more I wanted to see.

In 2020, I created this blog to not only share my travel stories and tips but also my thoughts on book and lifestyle-related topics. I might be an avid traveler, but I am equally enthusiastic about books, movies, style, and other home-centric topics (after all, I do spend the majority of my year at home).

From travel guides and book reviews to movie recommendations and clothing critiques, Bookish Wayfarer runs the gamut. I hope you’ll enjoy this blog as much as I have enjoyed putting it together!
