We reside in Virginia bouncing between the suburbs and our mountain cabin. Our interests and wanderlust center around serving as volunteers in scouting and travel; but you’ll find a lot of reflections in our blog articles too. We hope this blog inspires you to explore new places. Feel free to leave a comment here on this website or follow us on social media.

Inspired by characters Ellie and Carl Fredricksen from the movie UP, we’d like to share with you highlights from our continuing adventure. “We’re in a club now.” Julia and I are happily married and traveling about to discover what we can, whenever we can.

We promise to report on MUST SEE sights as well as share a few ideas about finding cost-effective fun activities that may take you OFF THE BEATEN PATH. These sights and activities will be tagged appropriately along with tags that include TRAVEL, FOOD & DRINK, WHERE TO STAY, and GEAR TO BRING.

Please let us know what you think of our website and Travelogue (this blog). Excuse any broken links and/or awkward writing as this is our first such co-written literary project.

In the Spirit of Adventure,

Julia & John Lesko
