About Us

Travel is so much more than just getting that perfect Instagram shot in today’s tech-obsessed world. Social media may be the ideal platform to show the beauty of the world to armchair travelers around the world, but travel is so much more than that. A trip ought to have purpose. It ought to energize and uplift, restore and ground, instruct and test, but most of all, it ought to humble.

We can choose to pass on the many priceless lessons we have learned through travel to others, along with our greatest stories, most treasured memories, and countless other benefits of travel. It teaches us about ourselves and one another, it broadens our perspectives, and, like pressing a reset button, it compels us to rediscover what is truly important.

Personally, I consider traveling to be a way of life. Being born into a family who loved to travel and who had already lived on three different continents by the time I started school, I was destined to have a wanderlust (and a frequently mocked hybrid accent). The fact that our parents insisted that travel was the best classroom for my sister and me has allowed us to spend our summer vacations discovering fascinating locations both near and far.

From the start, we set out to write with integrity and sincerity in the hopes of encouraging others to travel. We want to inspire our readers and provide them with the knowledge and skills necessary for them to have experiences that are comparable to, if not superior to, ours.

I can only do that by telling stories, imparting knowledge, and paying attention to every last detail.
