Welcome! Thank you for being here. Local Adventurer is a travel lifestyle blog that has been moving us to a new city each year. We picked one year because one year is long enough to find the hidden gems but also temporary enough to push us to go out and explore often.

WHAT LOCAL ADVENTURER IS ABOUT

The idea of Local Adventurer was hatched when we moved out west in 2013 and regretted not exploring more of Atlanta, the hometown we had lived in for most our lives. It’s easy to get too comfortable and take your home for granted. Time is precious and fleeting, and we vowed to make it a practice to explore locally. After all, adventure is a mindset, and it is all around us.

CITIES WE’VE LIVED IN

So far, Esther and Jacob went from ATL ➸ LA ➸ VEGAS ➸ SAN DIEGO ➸ PORTLAND and have made these city bucket lists to help them explore. Erin and Caroline currently live in Asheville. We didn’t plan for it to happen, but it’s a wonderful coincidence that we happen to live in the most up and coming cities on the east and west coast!
