Travels with CT
Surviving Was the Beginning. Living Is the Adventure.
More Than a Travel Blog
Behind every photo is a memory. Behind every destination is an experience. And behind Travels With CT is a woman who refused to let life's challenges define her adventures.
I'm Courtney, and this space is where I share the places, people, and moments that have made the journey unforgettable.
"Showing that life after brain surgery can still be filled with adventure."
Nashville is home base—but staying still has never been my thing. From local gems around Middle Tennessee to road trips, weekend getaways, and bucket-list adventures, Travels With CT is where I share my favorite places, experiences, and lessons learned while traveling with a VP shunt.
NASHVILLE BASED
Nashville has my heart. These are the spots I keep going back to—local gems, outdoor escapes, and places that make this city feel like home, whether you live here or you’re just visiting.
EATS & TREATS
Good food is part of the journey. These are the places I’ve eaten, loved, and would actually recommend—no hype, just honest favorites and comfort bites worth the stop.
COFFEE SHOPS
Coffee stops that kept me going. From cozy corners to quick caffeine fixes, these are the spots I visit when I need a reset, a break, or just really good coffee.
OUTDOOR ADVENTURES
Hikes, waterfalls, and fresh air—at my own pace. These adventures are shared through the lens of living with a shunt, listening to my body, and finding joy outdoors without pushing past my limits.
