About Me

Hi, I’m Britney or Brit as many know me as and this is The Wandering Albrechts

The intent behind this blog was created after a season that changed me.

I am started The Wandering Albrechts while moving through grief and still showing up for life. Learning how to keep going, how to create meaning in small moments, and how to build a life that feels steady even when things feel uncertain.

This space is for anyone who wants practical, down-to-earth inspiration around budget-friendly living, DIY projects, travel, and navigating life transitions with intention. If you’re figuring things out as you go and want honesty over perfection, you’re in the right place.

I didn’t start this blog because I had everything figured out. I started it because I was learning how to live differently.

Grief has a way of changing how you see time, money, priorities, and joy. I found myself craving simplicity, creativity, and experiences that felt meaningful instead of rushed or expensive. Writing became a way to process what I was learning and to share what genuinely helped me move forward.

This blog exists to remind you that you can build something beautiful even during hard seasons. That growth doesn’t have to be loud. And that it’s okay to take life one step at a time.

Why You Can Trust What I Share

Everything I share here comes from lived experience.

The tips, routines, and ideas I write about are things I’ve tested in my own life while navigating change. From budgeting in real life, to tackling DIY projects that make home feel comforting, to planning travel that restores instead of drains, I focus on what’s practical and sustainable.

Nothing here is about doing more. It’s about doing what actually works.

A Little More About Me

I’m married to my favorite person and a dog mom to our golden retriever, Chanel, who keeps life playful and grounded. I love slow mornings, creative projects, spontaneous trips, and finding calm in everyday routines.

I believe life doesn’t have to be perfect to be meaningful, and that some of the best chapters are written quietly.
