Welcome to Finding Jillian.
I’m Jill.
I am a wife, a mother of two young adults, and one super SPOILED Golden Doodle named Bella.
I am also an EPIC worrier! I graduated many years ago with a B.A. in Communication and Business, but my husband is sure I have earned a Ph.D. in Worrying. When I was younger, my worrying and being a true introvert limited my travel. Then, after college, I went on my first cruise!
I discovered that the ocean speaks to my soul and I am happiest when packed and ready to go!
Cruising combines my love of the ocean with the adventure of seeing new places—and I only have to unpack once!
Why Finding Jillian?
In my travels, being aware and prepared has made all of the difference when it comes to worrying. I research a destination and review videos or pics from past travelers so that when I arrive, I feel confident that I’m in the right spot. If you’re a worrier, too, maybe that makes sense.
On this blog, I do the work for you.
I share tips, suggestions, checklists, and photos so that if you’re a worrier like me, new travel opportunities will feel familiar to you and you’ll be prepared.
If you aren’t a worrier, that’s awesome! I wish I were like you! I’ve got you covered, too. I’ve got planning guides, cruise tips, and destination information so you are ready to be out the door and on your adventure in no time!
I can’t wait to get to know you, too! I hope you will subscribe and join me on the journey.
