Kylee is a NICU nurse who discusses how her blog, Passports and Preemies, came to fruition through her five month solo travel journey across Europe and Southeast Asia.  Kylee shares how much money she saved to spend five months abroad, the time she got drunk off of martini's, texted a random guy and ended up in Italy for three weeks, singing Taylor Swift karaoke in Florence with strangers until 3 am, and having no chill when she thought she met her next boyfriend in Thailand.  The episode wraps with a message on not being afraid to chase after your dreams and to get out there and live your life.  You only have one after all.
