About Erica

Welcome to Travel Blissful.

My name is Erica Johansson. I’m a freelance writer and blogger in my 20s. Ever since I took a road trip with my parents to Yugoslavia at age 2, I’ve loved discovering new places. I enjoy variety and like the outdoors, the sea and beaches as much as cities, sleeping in tent (or under the stars) as much as luxury hotels, and meals from street vendors as much as gourmet dinners.
