Blogger and writer Samantha Wilson documents travel and personal evolution across her platforms, including "Camino Adventures," "Growing Wilder," and "Adventure Calls." Her work explores themes of self-discovery, ethical travel, and social justice, with a particular focus on encouraging personal growth and adventure, especially for women. She advocates for slow and conscious travel, a philosophy shaped by extensive time on the road and a commitment to thoughtful engagement with local cultures. Her approach to travel began with a year of independent exploration in 2004, which laid the foundation for her later work. Her writings frequently detail significant journeys, including the Camino de Santiago, and in-depth explorations of destinations like New Zealand, where she spent two months immersed in outdoor life and adventure sports. Beyond travel, she also explores broader societal issues, such as animal protection – often featuring her dog, Willy – and the intersection of travel with social justice. Before dedicating herself to writing and coaching, Wilson practiced as a litigation lawyer in the United Kingdom until 2011. This professional background informs her current approach, lending a structured and analytical perspective to her explorations of complex topics.
