Take your travel advice from someone who has lived there 👀 When I started traveling full-time, I learned very quickly that travel burnout is real and changing destinations every couple of days or even weeks was really not for me. I quickly pivoted to slow travel and now spend 1-3 months in each destination I visit. Spending more time in fewer locations means I am able to truly immerse myself into local culture and connect with the community on a deeper level... And it also means I can provide the best travel recommendations! Through my own in-depth experience and tapping into knowledge of the locals I meet along the way, I'm able to provide high quality travel tips to help you make the best out of your trip! I specialize in USA Travel, where I've explored 46/50 states extensively (with plans to reach all 50 by the end of 2025). I am a proud Michigan native and will never pass up the opportunity to introduce more people to it's beauty! My work has been featured on tourism boards su

Lacey Keigley
Greenville, SC, USA
I love traveling like a local but I'm not afraid to feel like a tourist too. I'm a "both and" sort of traveler. I want to travel a LOT so I need it to be affordable. I want to KNOW I am somewhere unique & special, so I'm willing to make that happen. I am a single mom so my expertise is in making it family friendly, fun AND affordable. And oh yeah - VERY memorable. I've had repeat visits to several locations - Colorado Springs, Denver, San Juan la Laguna, Utah, Virginia to name a few. And I adore treating my hometowns like vacation spots so I can tell you all you need to know about Greenville, SC and Travelers Rest, SC and Asheville, NC and Roanoke, VA - for starters! I'm also an ace girls trip planner. Just ask my friends who have accompanied me to cabins in North Carolina and Georgia, adventure trips in Midway, Utah, weekend stays in Savannah GA and Charleston SC and state park adventures across the United States. Themed trips are a special interest to me - especially ones center

Trent Gertz
Seattle, WA, USA
Hello! My name is Trent Gertz and I am 21 years old, graduating from Boise State University this May of 2024. I recently moved back to the United States after living abroad in Turin, Italy for 1 year. While abroad I discovered my passion for travel while visiting 26 different countries and 45+ breathtaking cities. I had many early wakeup calls that would start a new adventure when the alarm went off, whether it was hopping on a train, plane, bus, or locals offering rides. I have gained so much knowledge through the weekly journeys, whether that be culture, costs, transportation, dining, or housing accommodations. I feel that through all the speedbumps that each trip threw at me I now can confidently say I can effectively plan and travel all through Europe no matter the circumstances. I am very knowledgeable within the USA as well as I come from a family of airline pilots and flight attendants, so I was born with the angst to see the world and understand all it has to offer. I am happy

Ani Danelz | National Park Guide
Houghton, MI, USA
Welcome to my (and hopefully our) adventures! I have lived all over the United States, and I have a passion for the outdoors and budget-travel. My style of travel is easy-going, yet filled with adventure and excitement. I focus on connecting with people and community, as well as immersing myself in the outdoors as much as possible. Finding a balance between these two have led to some amazing memories, and I cannot wait to share them with you. Most recently, I lived in my car for over seven months, while I visited every National Park in the lower 48. I hiked, camped, met amazing people, and hiked some more. I got to experience the parks like a local, because I had no timetable, no flights to catch, no rental car to return, etc. Some parks I stayed only for a few hours, and others for over a week. I chatted with park rangers, stayed with people that lived nearby, and camped with others at some amazing campsites. The travel guides I share give you an "insider" look at the nationa

Hey there! I’m Kimberly, the face behind Kimberly Kephart Travels. Currently, I call Vicenza, Italy, my home. My husband’s career in the Military has allowed us to live abroad for SEVEN years. Our journey has taken us from Poland (2017-2020) to Korea (2020-2023), and now Italy (2023-?). Living abroad has been an adventure that has shaped me in countless ways. Traveling has helped me discover myself, pushed me beyond my limits, immersed me in diverse cultures, and provided solace during challenging times. I have always been a wanderer, and I was the navigator on family roadtrips, sitting side by side with my dad leading the way. I am an aspiring Travel Coach with the Travel Coach Network and working on finishing that certification so I can get more women and men traveling more confidently.
