Living a joy-filled midlife through travel... Discovering Wisconsin and beyond
Hey there! I'm Lori and welcome to my midlife travel blog
Let me tell you a little bit about myself-
I live in a small town in Wisconsin and am a children's book author, mom, wife, and...
I FREAKING love to travel...
I didn't discover exactly how much until I was in my 40s. That was when I took my dream trip to Paris, and it changed my life. Travel lit me up, gave me confidence, opened doors that I never thought were possible, and introduced me to people I never would have met otherwise.
Ask anyone who knows me how much I love to talk about travel, the places I've been, the food I've eaten, and the stories I pick up along the way. It's hard to shut me up!
That's where this little midlife travel blog, Lori Loves Adventure comes in. It's a travel guide, it's travel inspiration, it's my travel stories. I am committed to encouraging and inspiring midlife women to travel as a way to rock the second half of life.
What are you waiting for? Let's go on an adventure.

The wind howls off the bay, the driveway is edged with frozen slush, and your kids are staring at the same pile of Lego bricks they have touched a hundred times this week. That is what January in...
The first time I took a solo road trip after 50, my hands shook on the steering wheel. I was excited, but fear sat in the passenger seat. What if I got lost? What if something went wrong and I was...
You zip your tent at dusk. The sky fades from blue to charcoal. A branch snaps somewhere behind your campsite and every sound seems louder than it did an hour ago. If you are a midlife woman camping...
The idea of taking off on your own for a weekend can feel both exciting and a little scary. If you are curious about solo travel women over 50 or women traveling alone, you are not alone. Many women...
