Why I Started See With Sadie
By: Sadie | See with Sadie
I've always loved travel. I think theres something exciting about discovering a new place, finding a hidden gem, trying something new, or experiencing a completely different way of life. But over time, I've realized that what I love most about travel isn't just the places themselves. It's everything that comes with experiencing them.
I love the research, the planning, and the process of curating experiences that turn a trip into something memorable. I love finding the little restaurants you wouldn't have discovered otherwise, the experiences that make you step outside your comfort zone, and the places that leave you wanting to see more of the world. Even more than that, I love sharing this with other people.
That love is what inspired me to start See With Sadie.
A World Bigger Than We Think
One of the things I love most about travel is how much it opens your mind. It's so easy to get caught up in the routines of everyday life and find comfort in familiarity. We grow accustomed to doing things a certain way, seeing things from a certain perspective, and assuming that what feels normal to us is normal everywhere else.
Travel challenges that.
It introduces you to different cultures, traditions, foods, perspectives, and ways of life. It gives you the opportunity to learn from people whose experiences may be completely different from your own. Sometimes, it pushes you outside your comfort zone. Other times, it simply makes you pause and reconsider something you have always taken for granted. The world is so much bigger than we realize, and there is so much to learn beyond what we already know.
I have quote from a college professor has always stuck with me: “It's not wrong, it's just different.”
It's a simple phrase, but I think it represents something super important about traveling and experiencing the world.
Different cultures have different customs, values, traditions, and perspectives, and there is so much to gain from taking the time to understand them rather than immediately judging them through the lens of our own experiences.
I think the more we experience the world, the more we begin to understand that there isn't just one way to live, think, or see things. Travel encourages us to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and approach unfamiliar things with curiosity instead of fear.
After all, it's difficult to understand something you've never experienced, and it's hard to appreciate a place, a culture, or a perspective you have never taken the time to learn about.
Travel gives us that opportunity.
Sharing the Things That Make Travel Special
For me, travel has always been about more than simply deciding where to go. I genuinely enjoy the process of discovering what makes a destination special and finding ways to experience it beyond the obvious.
I love curating experiences, researching destinations, and bringing together the little details that make a trip feel personal. Sometimes, that means discovering a unique hotel, finding a local restaurant, planning an unforgettable excursion, or building an itinerary that balances adventure with time to slow down and enjoy where you are.
And I love being able to share those discoveries with other people.
That's the heart behind See With Sadie.
Through personalized travel planning, curated itineraries, and hosted group trips, my goal is to help people discover the places, experiences, and moments that make traveling so special. Whether it's exploring a new city, immersing yourself in another culture, trying something outside your comfort zone, or checking a long-awaited destination off your bucket list, I want to help make those experiences possible.
Because the best parts of travel aren't always the things you plan for. Sometimes, they're the unexpected conversations, the unfamiliar traditions, the meals you still think about months later, or the moments when you realize just how much there is left to discover.
See the World a Little Differently
I started See With Sadie because I want to share my love of travel with others. I want to help people get out there, explore somewhere new, and experience the incredible things this world has to offer.
I hope that every trip brings more than just photos and memories. I hope it brings new perspectives, a little more curiosity, and a greater appreciation for the people and places that make our world so wonderfully diverse.
I hope See With Sadie encourages people to be curious, to explore, and to see the world with a more open mind.
Because there is so much more to see.
