🌞 About Me

Hi, I’m Jessica — the wild heart and mountain-loving soul behind Messy Bun Mountain Sun Travel Experiences.

I started this business because I believe the best adventures don’t come from perfectly packed itineraries or rushing from place to place. They come from fresh air, good coffee, hidden trails, and trips that leave room for real life — including the days when plans change.

Colorado has been my playground for years. I’ve spent countless mornings chasing quiet trails, afternoons tucked into cozy coffee shops, and weekends exploring small mountain towns and campsites that don’t always show up on the big travel blogs. Along the way, I realized how overwhelming it can feel to plan a trip here — especially when weather, permits, crowds, and timing all matter.

Messy Bun Mountain Sun Travel Experiences exists to make that easier.

I help travelers plan Colorado trips that feel thoughtful, flexible, and doable. Whether it’s a short weekend escape, a longer mountain adventure, or a camping trip under the stars, I focus on realistic pacing, meaningful experiences, and backup options when things don’t go exactly as planned.

I also believe adventure looks different for everyone. Some days it’s a hike at sunrise. Other days it’s a scenic drive, a slow wander through town, or sitting with a warm mug watching the snow fall. All of it counts — and all of it deserves a plan that works.

When I’m not planning trips, you can usually find me outside soaking up the sunshine, hunting down a good latte, lifting heavy things, or dreaming up the next way to get people together and exploring — whether that’s through group trips, community adventures, or shared moments around a campfire.

If you’re craving a trip that feels less stressful and more like you, I’d love to help you plan it.

Let’s get outside — and enjoy the moments in between. ☀️🏔️☕
