Me and Who's On the Road With Me

Hello!  My name is Michelle and I hope you're excited to join me on a little travel adventure (or two or three).  

In my world there is not one day that goes by without thinking of traveling, exploring, or finding an adventure. Earlier in life I loved backpacking around with a group of friends, then finding hidden gems while on trips with my husband, and now teaching my kids about life and living by taking them with me to fun and unknown places.  A Local Wander is where I get to share all that with you!

Take a look around and you're bound to find some of the following...

~Affordable ways to vacation~
~Unique parts of the globe we'vevisited and loved~
~Great opportunities for spending time outdoors~
~Ways to slow down and make traveling with kids memorable in a good way~
~Information on the best gear, accommodations, and souvenirs out there~
~Looks inside your own local wanders~

Here's a true-to-life look at the people you'll see out and about with me...




I'm so very glad you've decided to join us on this journey. 

 I look forward to seeing how we can find even more exciting adventures together!
