About Me

I’m a happily married wife of 17 years and a mom of 2 from Boston who was bitten by the travel bug way back in 2006 when I started dating my husband. This is my story!

Hey! I’m Rachel, And I Started Traveling With My Husband Way Back In 2006. 19 Years And 2 Kids Later, We Have Dozens Of Adventures Under Our Belt.

This is my way to document those adventures, share them with all those who love to travel, and hopefully help some people find the adventure inside them as well!

  • Beautiful scenery to inspire your journey.
  • Packing lists and how-to guides to help you make the most of your trips.
  • Numerous and varied locations to motivate you to travel the world.

Our Vacationing Life Was Created To Inspire And Get You Motivated!​

Since I started my travel blog my vision has been to inspire people to explore new places by providing travel tips, tricks and practical advice for all things travel related. For as long as we’ve been together (19 years!), my husband and I have had a constant desire to discover new places and cultures. I’ve always believed that each day is an opportunity to create lasting memories by experiencing new parts of this amazing world.

I hope to motivate you to pack your bags and get out there to experience your own epic adventures. I love sharing my experiences with people, showing that unforgettable travel experiences can be had anywhere. Follow me as I explore the diverse wonders of our world. Hopefully, you’ll feel inspired to get out of your comfort zone and see the world with me!
