Scenic Amalfi Coast September trip - Scenic boat ride, breathtaking views, girlfriends fun

About me! Hey, I’m Julie K. It’s a fun adventure to start traveling with diabetes. And I’m so glad that I can come alongside you to help make it happen. If you’re nervous, unsure of yourself or struggling to see how you’re going to do this—not to worry. For the past 6+ years, I’ve been traveling to 28 countries, lived abroad and finished an IronMan. I helped thousands of people with diabetes to travel, get their power back over diabetes and experience a stress-free life. Pretty soon you’ll be looking back and saying, “Wow! That was huge. I did it! I followed my dream and changed my life”! I was diagnosed with T1D in 1997. As far as I can remember, I always wanted to explore the world, but I had no idea how to make it possible for myself. Diabetes was very stressful for me and I didn’t want anyone to know I had T1D for fear of being seen as a burden or being treated differently. But in 2015, I had the opportunity to do an internship abroad and I decided to apply to go to Australia. You should have seen my face when I got accepted. I had never traveled more than 4 hours away from home and had no idea how to get insulin abroad. I had to figure it all out. It was endless sleepless nights let me tell you but I was determined to not let diabetes control my life. Right before I took my first plane to Australia, security stopped me at the airport and confiscated all my ice packs; leaving my insulin at room temperature. I was devastated and felt STUCK. I ran around the airport looking for a solution without success. I was in panick. I remember thinking to myself “What were you thinking? Going 6 months to Australia with diabetes is such a stupid idea.” At that moment, I had a choice. Take the risk and embark on a 24-hour trip that could be one of the most amazing experiences of my life or go home and be miserable. I used the chocolate ice cream from the meal served on the plane, which I placed in my cooler. 24 hours later, happy to have arrived in my new home, I started the travel adventure I for long dreamed of. Since then, I have traveled to 28 countries, lived abroad, and finished an IronMan. I also happen to be a type 1 diabetic since 1997. This used to define me, but it doesn’t anymore. With proven info, support, and a global community it CAN and WILL happen for you too. Pretty soon, you’ll be looking back and saying, “Wow! That was huge. I did it! I followed my dream and changed my life”!
