Profile details
About
Off-the-beaten-path enthusiast and travel guide to two curious kids. An island girl at heart, living in the DC area, daydreaming of my days exploring Portugal.
Travel style
Living in a small town in Portugal for six years, I became immersed in their culture, first out of necessity, then out of curiosity. Soon enough, I realized that approaching family travel with each member's interest opens paths even in the most remote places. I love a culinary experience that leads to meeting people and knowing their stories. Driven by my taste buds, you'll find me finding what to do around good places to eat and finding activities to share authentic experiences with my family.
