I've been dreaming of this day for years. Check out my adventures at the iconic Antelope Canyon!

You haven't seen the American Southwest until you've visited Monument Valley. Here's everything you need to know before you go.

I had the pleasure of spending some time recently in Joshua Tree National Park. This park is so unique and gorgeous in so many ways. Located in Southern California, this rather large park lures in millions of visitors annually. There are tons and tons of Joshua trees scattered throughout. In the picture below, I am standing next to the oldest Joshua tree in the park! (And by far the biggest Joshua tree I've seen yet!) Did you know Joshua Tree National Park is located where th

I was lucky enough to spend a week in the Florida Keys. We drove down through all the Keys, all the way to Key West and the Southernmost Point of the Continental USA! Key West This place is 100% a tourist trap, but if you love browsing local art and gift shops, posing for cheesy pictures (like I do), and good food and drinks, this is the place for you. Disclaimer: Key West is suppperrrr commercial. For whatever reason I wasn’t expecting that (😂) but I still had a blast! Sout

As most of you know by now, I'm just a girl and her Wrangler road-tripping across the USA and Canada. Due to wildfires and health reasons, I ended up staying in the PNW a few months longer than expected. But that's the beauty of an unplanned road trip - you have nothing to lose.

Although I planned to leave Washington in August, I ended up staying through

I get a ton of questions about how I travel so much and what it's like. I put up a Q&A on Instagram to see what you all wanted to know most. Here you'll find the answers to all of your burning questions. First off, how do I travel so much? Well... it started with a dream and I made it a reality. No I'm not some trust fund baby. I still work and I still travel. I saved up and bought my 2017 Jeep Wrangler myself and set off on a life-changing road trip. I never knew just how bi

First things first I want to make sure you properly appreciate this blog post. If you don't know what petrified wood is or want to learn some cool facts, check this out: petrified wood is technically a fossil. When a tree dies, it loses its branches. The Petrified Forest in Arizona used to be filled with trees and water back when the dinosaurs roamed, but now it is the tree-less, water-less desert you see above. When the forest was living, trees would eventually die and be bu

Welcome to my blog, I'm Make Her Mean. I started this blog as a way to connect with fellow Jeepers as I travel around the USA. I live a very unconventional lifestyle - I travel A LOT. I live in a new state every few months and I'm on the road more often than I'm not...by choice. 😬 Life is short, and the world has so much to offer. I'm determined to see it all. You can follow me on Instagram (@MakeHerMean) to check out my latest adventures. A little about me - I have a curiou
