About Us
Hi! We are Katie and Joe, we quit the corporate 9-5 to travel the world!
After years of bouncing around the globe working some pretty cool jobs and seeing some pretty cool things, we realized we wanted more out of life. So we made the leap into full-time travel and are now educating others how to do the same thing.

But why … On The Go?
Simple, we both share a love of traveling and experiencing new things. We tried our hands at corporate life (for 10-years) and we realized that there is so much in the world that we would not be able to get to see if we kept going on that track.
What did we do before we were travel writers and content creators?
Katie started her career teaching for Teach For America in Connecticut, from there she worked as a creative media producer as well as a freelance photographer for brands like CrossFit, Beautiful Destinations, Bloomberg, BMW Performance Driving School, Nike Football, Apple and more.
Joey was able to connect his passion for for the automotive industry with the creative world of advertising. He spent 10-years between New York City, Berlin, and Detroit working with brands like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Ram, Dodge, and many more tell their stories across traditional, digital, and social media.
