Hi, I’m Heather
I’m a 50 something professional who has serious addictions to travel and travel planning. As I have have gotten older, my drive to be outdoors has grown immensely and I find myself looking for weekend hikes or other outdoor activities. The quality of my life and overall attitude is best when I am exploring a new place and I believe that travel and the outdoors are key to a happy life.
I enjoy reading and I love a good Netflix documentary when I’m not on the road. If I have my laptop open I’m probably surfing vacation rentals or planning a road trip. I love looking up new locations and finding the best of what they have to offer.
Follow my journey online as I continue to explore new areas and revisit places I’ve fallen in love with.
