Lauren Juliff is the writer behind Never Ending Footsteps, the blog she started after quitting her job to travel full time in 2011, where she has since documented well over a decade on the road across dozens of countries. She is known for honest, practical writing about exploring the planet safely, adventurously, and affordably, much of it drawn from her own misadventures as a self-described disaster-prone traveler. She is the author of the travel memoir How Not to Travel the World, first published in 2015.
