Meet our Founder: Randi
Hi there! I’m Randi.
The H.T.I.C. (Head Traveler In Charge) at Black On Arrival. Pittsburgh native. Global citizen.
It all began with a study abroad trip to Santiago, Costa Rica. For three months, I frolicked around the country, beach to beach, hostel to hostel, and new experience to new experience. After saying “This is my first time doing xyz,” for the fifty-leventh time, one of my study abroad-mates suggested I keep a list of new things I tried in Costa Rica, and by the end of the 3 months, I had a list of 21 things.
I had been bitten by the travel bug. And I was forever changed.
Since then, I’ve lived in and/or traveled to 20 countries and have learned the insane amount of value in travel along the way.
Now, I share my travel stories, experiences, and lessons on YouTube and help others create their own life-enriching travel experiences through curating custom travel itineraries for clients and hosting thoughtfully designed group trips.
Because so many of us have mastered solo travel, but quietly crave shared memories, aligned company, and moments we don’t have to navigate alone.
Because ease, joy, and sisterhood are not luxuries — they’re part of our wellness.
And because the world feels different when you experience it with women who get you.
