After dumping her boyfriend and quitting her job, a 24-year-old woman now travels all over America with Ella, her adorable pooch.
Sydney Ferbrache worked three jobs and other side-lines to purchase a van. She has her fiancés sorted out and her story quickly went viral as she captured the hearts of people.
There is no doubt that the 24-year-old is a big inspiration for future travelers out there.
In an interview with Bored Panda, Sydney said: “The thing I love most about traveling is getting to experience different people and cultures. Nature is insanely beautiful and getting to spend time outside every day is nothing but a gift.
“However, getting to spend time on native lands and learn about the people who live there from those very people is the best learning experience I could ask for.”
She continued: “You would never guess that there so many interesting backgrounds in our very own country. My biggest challenge has probably been big life things happening and not having my family with me for them. I got into a car crash and my van was in the shop for a couple of weeks.
“So I was literally homeless and had to stay in really cheap motels that allowed dogs. My first little one Ella has surgery when she was just 4 months old and I had no one to help me through that either. My family does what they can from Indiana but sometimes a hug is really what’s needed.”
The two have already visited more than 20 states.
She also said that she has been ‘extremely lucky’ with people’s reaction. “I haven’t gotten too much ‘hate’ or negativity. I try really hard not to read too many comments on Facebook or YouTube because that’s where trolls can really come out.
“I like my people and family on Instagram because they support what I do and surround me with positivity instead of the negative stuff. I know it’s out there! Out of sight out of mind though.”
Sydney also said that everyone can go on an adventure.
“You don’t need a ton of money. You can do it with kids. You can do it no matter what your circumstances!”
