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.
