Hillery's Travels

a female from Chicago

I travel for fun, for relaxation, to learn about new things, but most of all for finding the iconic experiences - the things that make other places famous or special.

Hillery has visited 46 places in 26 cities in 10 countries and has written 8 travel blogs with 29 entries.
