About Our Family

Hi everyone! We are Ryan, Allie, Stella and Michael. We are a family of four, that live in Minnesota with our adorable dog, Bear, and love to travel.

Throughout the various phases of our lives, traveling has been a priority. We have had many adventures and created memories

Growing up, Allie traveled with her family both in the US and to various other countries, including Mexico, Dominican Republic, Bahamas and England. In college she spent a month traveling throughout China during a study abroad program. After graduation, Ryan and Allie explored Europe for a month, visiting Germany, Austria, Italy, France and England. After getting married, they went on one of their biggest adventures, spending a month in Tanzania.

When Stella and Michael were born, the travels continued throughout the US, with Disney World becoming a yearly occurrence. We were finally able to start venturing internationally as a family once COVID restrictions started lifting.

For us, traveling is a way to spend dedicated time as a family, strengthen our relationships, try new things, and learn about other cultures. It isn’t always easy, in fact every trip has had its own challenging moments, but it has always been worth it.

Our friends and family often ask us for details about our travels, tips and recommendations. We believe all travel, whether local or international, flying or road trips, and budget or luxury is beneficial.

Thanks for following along on our adventure, and hopefully we can inspire and help you to do the same!

– Ryan, Allie, Stella & Michael
