Mapping It
We're Karin and Jeremy, just your average married couple with a passion for travel! We're not digital nomads, we have regular full time jobs! When we travel, we go mid-range. That means we always look for a good deal, but we're not necessarily backpacking or taking luxury flights all the time. We've traveled to over 25 countries around the world and we've got a long way to go! Some of our favorite adventures include van life in Norway, street food in Japan, visiting European Christmas markets, road tripping around Iceland, and exploring the incredible countries in the Balkans! We have a passion for travel and we want to make the most of our time off. Follow along on our adventures as we maximize our vacations on our series called "Mapping It!"
