Join Tré Bacon, a seasoned solo traveler and expat, exploring conscious travel, wellness, and cultural immersion.

Hi, I’m Tré, the heart and voice behind The Journey of the Traveling Afro—a blog where conscious travel, wellness, and meaningful experiences take center stage. Think of me as your go-to guide for exploring the world sustainably while embracing all the joys of intentional living.

A Little About Me

  • Academic Creds: Bachelor’s in Fine Arts (Minor in Communications) + Master’s in International Business with a focus on Luxury Marketing and Sustainability.

  • Global Explorer: I’ve traveled to over 40 countries and lived in vibrant cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Dubai.

  • How It All Began: My love for travel started with a graduation trip to London, where I fell in love with culture, color, and freedom.

What You’ll Find Here

  • Conscious Travel Tips: From sustainable itineraries to must-visit hidden gems, I’m here to make your travels intentional and impactful.

  • Wellness Rituals: Self-care practices and routines inspired by the many cultures I’ve experienced.

  • Stories That Inspire: Memorable moments, like trying duck in South Korea, connecting with locals, and learning that every grandmother is a treasure box of wisdom.

Why I Do This

Travel isn’t just about where we go—it’s about how it transforms us. Through this blog, I aim to:

  • Inspire you to see travel as a path to connection and growth.

  • Help you embrace sustainable, stylish, and mindful living.

  • Share my love for new experiences and intentional self-care.

And when I’m not traveling? You’ll probably find me:

  • Meditating with a cup of herbal tea.

  • Daydreaming about my next destination.

  • Trying to convince myself that my well-loved passport holder doesn’t need replacing (it’s got character).

So, let’s explore the world together—sustainably, stylishly, and with hearts wide open.

Life is meant to be lived fully, one adventure at a time.
