@lilmsawkward If Croatia isn’t on your list, then add it. Beautiful beaches, tons to do, some of the most beautiful coastal towns you’ve ever seen, killer national parks. I LOVED it. And I found the people to be super friendly. I visited Split and Dubrovnik and then took a day trip to Plitvice which I think is a must do. #croatia #summertravel #destinations2023 ♬ original sound - Fanta.k

Sharinda, @theptonomad
@theptonomad Is TikTok lettingus say ⚫️ again? I’m sick of being sent to jail, lol. When I would share my travel stories, I was often shamed for traveling to Europe and not traveling more to Africa. I have always had this desire to help bring unity to the African diaspora, but was under the impression that I could only do this from the motherland. I began to take trips near the states because I couldn’t afford to travel to Africa. I slowly began to realize that the work can be done closer to home. #diaspora #diasporatiktok #blacktravel #theptonomad ♬ Tubarão Te Amo - DJ LK da Escócia & Tchakabum & Mc Ryan SP
With the goal of sparking wanderlust within Black women, Sharinda focuses on encouraging her followers to embrace the travel lifestyle while also juggling a professional career. She understands that it’s not particularly realistc to tell her followers who want to go on vacation more often to quit their job or start their own business so that they can travel full-time. That’s why she strives to encourage people to travel more with the paid time off that they have. Follow her on TikTok for tips on traveling, luxury vacations, and maintaining a healthy work/life balance.
