My Values

I strive to share my honest opinions with you so you know exactly what you’re getting into when traveling somewhere. If I recommend a place or product, it is something I truly believe in. Travel should be attainable for everyone, and I’m here to show you how! If you’ve traveled before but need help planning your next trip, you’re in the right place.

“Travel is the best teacher. Plan that trip and see the possibilities that await you.”

I’ll Pack My Bags…Alpacka My Bags!

Alpacka My Bags started when Georgina’s love of llamas and alpacas was combined with her love of travel. She always knew she wanted to travel the world and she was determined to figure out a way to find location freedom. Travel blogging is just that for Georgina!

While blogging is a lot harder than she ever imagined it would be, she’s fallen in love with writing about her travel adventures so others can learn from them, plan with her travel guides, and become the traveler they dream of being. Photography is quickly becoming a favorite hobby of hers as well; become inspired to travel with Georgina’s travel photos and guides.

Adventure is calling…Alpacka My Bags! Enjoy city getaways, nature escapes, food and coffee recs, and escaping into a good book.

Traveling on a budget is possible, and I’m here to show you how you too can save money when planning a trip. By enjoying free and cheap activities while occasionally splurging on a dream location or activity, eating at the best local restaurants and coffee shops, and finding the cheapest nice places to stay with camping recommendations too.

Sometimes cheap flights are the way to go, and other times a road trip might be the best budget travel option. Learn how to make the most of your vacation days on a limited budget with Alpacka My Bags travel guides. Support local businesses, find cheap things to do, and wind down at the nicest budget accommodations.

Hi, I’m Georgina!

I’m Georgina, creator and writer of Alpacka My Bags. Organizing is my forte, and I love planning trips. I find the flights, the Airbnbs, the destinations, the trails, and anything else to satisfy my itch for adventure. You should see how many tabs are open on my laptop at all times.

I graduated from DePaul University with a degree in business administration. Outside of traveling, I love painting, reading, and all kinds of crafting. You name it, I’ve made it. I love being active, especially when it’s outside. Fun fact, I danced for 11 years, from elementary until I graduated from college.

I love exploring cities; you’ll find my ultimate guides with food and coffee recs to some of my favorite cities I’ve visited. But there’s nothing more I love than getting outside and finding the best views nature has to offer. Find me on a hiking trail or skiing in the mountains. Easy going adventure travel is so much fun, and I’m here to show you how you can enjoy it too!

I’m more often than not traveling with my partner Nathan. Sometimes our dog, JoJo, even joins us on adventures!
