Koyasan, JapanI spent my birthday last year waking up at sunrise to watch Buddhist monks pray, eating vegan food in a temple, walking through one of the most serene cemeteries in the world, and once again marvelling at just how beautiful and unique this country really is.

Thank you so much, to both of you.

Hi, I'm Brenna

My name is Brenna Holeman and I drink a lot of whisky. No, wait. That’s not how I want to start. After travelling to more than 100 countries over the past 17 years, many of them solo, I tend to write about travel a lot, but I write about other things, too: getting dumped, buying way too much jewellery, and yeah, OK, whisky (none of those things are related, I swear). You’ll find a mix of advice, opinion pieces, and stories on this blog, but either way, I hope to make you want to read more. And up next? I'm now a single mom to a beautiful little boy, the biggest solo adventure I've ever been on. For more about me and what you'll find on This Battered Suitcase, click here.
