About This Blog

Honest travel guides from the couple using every PTO day for incredible adventures around the world

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.

I love adventurous travel. I tend to gravitate toward wildlife encounters, epic landscapes, challenging hikes, and unique experiences that get me off the typical tourist trail.

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. We have.

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.
