Black woman gazes into the distance, writes travel letters and inspiration for women travelers.

I travel to feel more. I write to bring you closer.

I'm Emi. Welcome to Voyage à nue.

Travel - Letters - Photographs

Voyage à nue began as a repository for my travel photographs.

But soon after, it became much more.

A library of letters from around the world reflecting on intimacy, vulnerability, spirituality, and the occasional whimsical moment.​​​​​

​You're welcome to stay awhile. Perhaps you'll find a friend here you can relate to or someone who might make you feel seen. When you're ready, join the Voyage à nue Lounge. New letters and galleries will find their way to you as they arrive.

​

Stay awhile,

Emi

To New Friends, Welcome.

Begin by meeting Emi, visit the latest gallery, or open the first letter from Melbourne.

Letters, When They're Ready

I don't send newsletters. I send letters about the places I'm going, the things I'm learning, the things I'm not quite ready to say anywhere else.
