Jana is a seasoned traveler, having studied in England, backpacked across Europe, and even visited ancient ruins in Turkey. She loves the road so much that she was possessed to drive in a big circle around the entire island of Great Britain in a rental car for thirty days, visiting a ton of culture and history hotspots along the way. Even crazier, she spent four months backpacking her way across Europe, hitting eleven countries along the way. She has driven most of Route 66 and explored 41 US states, visiting a ton of National Parks along the way. And then there was Spain during Covid. Her planning skills terrify even her closest friends. (Check out where she has been!)
