About
This blog was started to bring you travel tips, ideas, and places that you would want to visit with or without children. Whether you are a new parent, have children already or are single, you will find a little something for everyone here. Live like a local. Be a traveler, not a tourist.
My name is Erin Austen Abbott and I spent years traveling for work, as a crew member for various bands and also as a travel nanny, before my husband Sean and I had our son, Tom Otis. I have traveled to 48 states and 22 different countries over the years and when I’m not traveling for work or with my family, I can be found at home in Water Valley, MS where I work as a freelance writer and photographer.
It was in those years of traveling for work, that I picked up so many travel tips and amassed a large suggestion list of sights to see. I hope to incorporate my love of art, books, music, architecture, design and food into every post. Thanks for reading! – Erin
