Hi, I’m Michelle!

Hey there, friend! I’m Michelle—a Jesus-loving traveler ready to take in the whole world. My journey began in college when I went on a mission trip to Mexico City. Since then, I’ve visited 12 countries, 8 national parks, and countless cities across the US. My siblings always joke that my bags are always packed, just in case an opportunity to travel pops up.

Now that I’m married with two miracle kids, I love traveling with them and experiencing the world through their eyes. We travel several times a year during school breaks, and seeing their wonder and awe at God’s creation makes my heart sing every time. I love finding affordable, family-friendly destinations where we can go on grand adventures together. One of my favorite memories was rock climbing with my kids in New River Gorge, West Virginia.

Friends and family always ask for recommendations on great places to stay near national parks or top things to do on international trips. So, in 2025, I decided to start this travel blog to share all of that with you! My specialty is uncovering unique things to do at top destinations, like feeding kangaroos near Mammoth Cave National Park. My goal is to help families plan low-stress, joy-filled adventures that create lifelong memories without breaking the bank.

Join me on this journey! Check out my latest posts for family-friendly travel inspiration, follow along on Instagram for real-time adventures, and feel free to reach out—I’d love to hear about your adventures!
