In a personal note, Tracee shared:

“I’m a solo wandering spirit and I invite all of you to join me on my explorations! By ‘exploring,’ I mean donning my stylish attire, savoring delectable cuisine, delving into art and culture, and taking a dip in hotel pools. Our time together will include my thorough, painstaking, and sometimes amusing preparations for these adventures. Essentially, I’ll be bringing my Instagram to TV!

I trust this show will serve as a reminder that we can courageously live life on our own terms and be our true selves, confidently navigating the world.”
