My love for travel started at a young age with my first vacation as a toddler, rolling around in a pack-and-play in the floor of our 1970’s Winnebago Brave on our way to Texas! It was the late 70’s and car seats weren’t a thing then, I guess!
These days, I am always dreaming and planning new adventures for myself and my family. We love theme parks, national parks, and coastal areas for our trips. Neither of us have traveled internationally, but it’s on the list and I have created many itineraries, mostly for trips in Europe, Japan and Canada.
My wife is passionate about Florida and Disney, while I have a deep love for the outdoors and hiking. She delights in the magic and excitement of Disney’s attractions, the sunny beaches, and vibrant culture of Florida. Meanwhile, I find joy in exploring rugged trails, experiencing the serenity of nature, and discovering hidden gems in the wilderness. Together, we blend our interests to create diverse and enriching travel experiences that cater to both of our passions. And this is where the name Coast and Trail Travels was created.
Join us as we take you through the family and adventure travel planning process, sharing our personal experiences, insights, and practical tips to help make your next journey unforgettable.
