Based in World
With an insatiable appetite for adventure, I'm Amanda Blakley, a travel writer who chronicles the inside scoop on fashionable, family-friendly travel. My journey has taken me from Toronto to sunny California, where I've spent the last few years establishing roots in Malibu with my husband and two boys, embracing all that the natural setting has to offer. I'm constantly seeking out new experiences and sharing my tried-and-true travel tips with others. Whether it's running along the beach, hiking the trails near my house, or surfing with my little boys, I'm always up for an adventure. I have a particular interest in traveling with tots - and not your Disney World/Club Med run of the mill variety. I hope my children will have similar chances as I, to travel this amazing world of ours. I believe that travel is about more than just seeing new places; it's about living a spontaneous, joyful, and curiosity-filled life. I'm passionate about helping others create unforgettable memories with their loved ones, and I'm always on the lookout for the best hotels, restaurants, and activities to recommend. I'm excited to continue sharing my adventures with you and inspiring you to explore the world.
