the places ahead
Travel is more possible than it looks.
Travel can sometimes feel complicated, intimidating, or out of reach. It doesn’t have to be that way. The Places Ahead is here to make seeing the world feel more possible- with practical advice to help you plan smarter, spend less, find your confidence, and navigate when the unexpected happens.
Hi, I’m Kelly,
welcome to the places ahead
I’m Kelly- a frequent traveler, obsessive trip planner, a bit of an overthinker, and I’m usually already thinking about the next trip before the current one is over. I still get anxious before every trip but find my happy place in far-reaching corners of the globe!
I created The Places Ahead because I believe travel should be possible for more people. You don’t need an unlimited budget, months to plan, or to have everything figured out before you go. I can be found traveling solo, with my family, with kids and teens—and I love finding unique ways to make travel work.
Here, I share my journey, and the practical things I’ve learned along the way- from points and miles and the basics of planning a trip, to navigating unfamiliar places and how to figure it out when the unexpected happens. I’m glad you’re here! Learn More…
