About This Blog

I'm Kathryn, the author of this blog, and I'm obsessed (truly obsessed) with travel. My husband, Alex, and I work full time in New York and use every PTO day at our disposal for international adventures. I started this blog to connect with other travelers and share my honest experiences with other people. Traveling is my greatest passion.

In the world of AI, I believe there's still a place for travel blogs. Nothing can replace a real human's opinions and reviews of their experiences. ChatGPT and Claude have never been to any of these places.

My travel style is a little bit of everything, from remote adventures in bare-bones accommodations to luxury travel.

If you have questions or comments on anything I write, I'd love to hear from you, especially if you're as passionate about travel as I am.
