“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” -Howard Thurman

Hi, I’m Brittany Kulick, a scuba diving, bungy-jumping, ice cream addict who’s caught the travel bug in a big way! In March of 2015, I launched The Sweet Wanderlust and in August of 2015, I said goodbye to Texas and a career in marketing to explore this great big world and share it with you!

Since then, over 150,000 people have relied on The Sweet Wanderlust to recommend the greatest desserts and the best adventures. Whether planning a girls’ weekend in New York, discovering Melbourne’s best freakshakes, or mapping an epic road trip through New Zealand, The Sweet Wanderlust is the go-to resource for people with a sweet tooth and a taste for adventure.

I’ve visited 54 countries, and love discovering new places and cultures and meeting the people that make a place unique. Every time you visit The Sweet Wanderlust, you’re sure to unique activities, delicious desserts and epic itineraries that will fuel your wanderlust.

Saying yes to travel changed my life, and I’m passionate about helping others find the courage to live the life they were created for. So if encouragement is what you’re looking for… stick around and be brave with me!

I’m just a girl. Standing in front of an ice cream cone. Asking it to not melt. This is my own Notting Hill romance. There’s love. There’s suspense. There’s a moment when it all might fall apart. And there’s a sweet conclusion. @milkcoollondon , I think you might be THE ONE!
Marhaba means welcome in Arabic, and that’s exactly what I felt in #Rabat at @riad .marhaba! The riad was purchased 4 years ago and has been painstakingly renovated to reveal its full glory (think scraping ugly green paint off every surface to find beautiful stone beneath). The rooms are enormous and the overall feel is unexpected luxury. Plus, I kind of fell in love with Rosa, the feline boss of the riad. ❤️ I’ve often found that the most beautiful things are the unplanned. Have you fallen in love with a city or country unexpectedly?
While on tour yesterday, @majestictourguide (Morocco’s youngest guide!!) was showing us the community baker. Dubbed the ‘most clever man in town’ the baker must remember a symbol for every family, which is marked into the bread baked specifically for each family. I was listening (I promise!) but I got distracted by the halwa d lcoco in the case. Thankfully, Fatima Zahrae Fares was very understanding and bought a couple cookies to keep me going for the rest of the tour as we explored the tannery, learned how silk is made without worms and found Argan oil at a shop Bill
PLAY. We don’t do it often enough. But when your riad has a closet full of 1920s dress up clothes to celebrate former resident, Josephine Baker, you play all day. And then you beg not to leave. @marrakechriad , I’ll be back!! What’s your favorite childhood pastime?
Yes, it’s topped with sugar. No, it’s not dessert. Let me explain ‍♀️ I tried the pastilla poulet, filled with a mixture of chicken, almonds, cinnamon and other spices on the first stop of yesterday’s @moroccanfoodtour . I thought this would be the highlight of the trip, peaking at stop one, but as we walked the labyrinth of winding streets, tasting honey-soaked cookies, fried sardines and sipping fresh fruit juice, I fell even more in love with Morocco. We saw dried sheep heads, hanging cow feet and brains (that ARE food, but we didn’t eat it) and cute baby turtles (that

Scooteroo: Joining a biker gang in Queensland

I didn’t cross riding a Vespa in Italy off my Be Brave list. It got switched to riding a motorbike in Thailand. I assessed the situation when I arrived and decided that there’s a fine line between bravery and stupidity. I didn’t want to be one more bruised and broken backpacker statistic, so it didn’t […]

Unique Cape Tribulation & Daintree Foodie Experiences

After spending a month traveling up the east coast of Australia by bus, I decided to take one day to travel my own way… which always includes lots of sweet stops. And so, without further ado… the sweetest day trip from Cairns.

Dallas’ best macarons: Part 2

It came to my attention that I left some very important bakeries off of my first blog post about Dallas’ best macarons (if you missed it, you can read it here). Since I couldn’t leave the country with the city’s potentially best macarons untasted, I grabbed my friend (who wrote the blog on macarons in Paris) […]
