Thanks for stopping by! I’m Tanya Turner, and I’m bit of a travel buff. I’ve been to 17 countries so far, and have loads more on the bucket-list!
My goal is to communicate the knowledge, tips, tricks and hacks I’ve accumulated from my travels to my readers.
Welcome! I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Tanya I currently live in the Edmonton, Alberta area with my husband, son and 2 beagles. I have created a reputation within my local community as a travel expert. I’ve found my true passion, and it is all things travel!
I am at a central point in my life where I’m transitioning away from being the busy CEO and owner of a prosperous local real estate brokerage – Realty Innovations after spending 20 years in the corporate world.
Over the years, I not only forged impactful relationships with my clients, but mentored and coached multiple successful agents in their careers, within my office. One of my most successful mentee’s is in the process of buying the company from me.
Looking forward, I’d like to incorporate my eye for detail, creative writing & marketing skills, my love of photography and a deep understanding of the human psyche into creating a sustainable travel blogging business for myself. My ultimate goal is to be able to live and work from anywhere in the world.
Through this website, I want to help readers:
- Reach their own travel goals
- Get inspired to try new destinations
- Find the best travel deals & save money
- Communicate the best travel hacks
- Travel more often
