Hi, beautiful people! I’m Eric!

Welcome to Eric Going Global, the primary platform I use to share my stories, tips, photos, and other content to inspire you to travel, solo or with me.

Long story short, I have traveled around the world with my family, like The Wild Thornberrys, since I was a toddler. Nearly thirty years and six continents later, I am a twenty-something who continues to explore the world.

From seeing the Tokyo Tower to Machu Picchu and just about everything in between, I am just a boy trying to see as much of the world as possible and hopefully motivate you to do the same.

When the pandemic interrupted the travel experience, I knew it was the perfect time to start sharing my adventures with everyone suffering from travel nostalgia.

Now, I have decided to ditch the grind of corporate culture and live a life based on my desires, not my circumstances! And I am forever grateful you chose to be a part of this journey!

Follow my blog and accompany me on my past and present journey. I started the blog to give you a warm feeling about the world, warm enough to inspire you to take your own trip, maybe. It does not matter if you are a seasoned traveler like me or have never been on a trip.

I also received the prestigious Gilman Scholarship to study abroad in Ireland in the summer of 2017! So, in addition to being a knowledgeable traveler, I am a skillful writer, which is why I am here sharing my work with you!

What else? When not traveling the world, I usually spend time at the theater (I love movies!) or get creative on my turntables (amateur DJ here). I have many hobbies, and my goal is to explore them all!
