THE GUEST

Rachel Hill is the founder of RachelTravels.com.

After silently suffering from Anxiety Disorder and Depression for over a year, Rachel made the decision to resign from a lucrative and promising corporate career to travel the world indefinitely.

Rachel’s love for travel started before ever stepping on a plane. As a child, she read hundreds of books which allowed her to explore the world, in different times and places over and over again. In

high school, she was granted an opportunity to travel to China for a month. Since then, her heart for travel and exploration has taken her to nearly 40 countries.
