I live in Austin, Texas and spend my days dreaming of cool climates.  I have three girls and we all love to travel and explore new cultures.

The travel bug got me after my first international trip to Germany as an exchange student in high school.  Since then I've traveled through Europe (with Kristy), Australia, and Africa, 23 countries and counting!  After having kids, I traded my backpack for a spinner suitcase and continued my travels.

I currently work as the Director of Communications and IT at a Montessori school.  I have summers and holidays off so I have ample of time to share my favorite places.

I live in Michigan with my two sons and husband. I am a full-time Midwife at a busy hospital. I worked as a traveling nurse for 3 years prior to becoming a midwife.    

I love to plan trips no matter how near or far the destination.  My first international trip was to Australia.  That trip started the wheel in motion for one adventure after another through many different countries. ​My favorite part of travel is meeting locals and participating in local activities.  ​I don't like being a tourist among tourists...no offense to other tourists!

​Jodie and I are cousins who backpacked Europe for 3 months back in 1996 where we learned that we are awesome travel buddies. She had an idea a back then to start a travel service but our lives took different directions; marriage, work, and kids. Twenty-Five years later we are ready to take a leap and follow our dream of sharing travel with others
