Hi, I'm Jill

I’m mom to two 11-year-old boys and a 29-year-old daughter. I live in the San Antonio area with my husband and sons, who are both adopted from China.

After 26 years in the United States Air Force, I embarked on my second act creating parenting, lifestyle and travel content infused with humor and a “life isn’t perfect but get out there and live it anyway” voice. I believe experiences count more than stuff and that travel teaches patience, cooperation and humility.

I establish connections with my readers by sharing travel and lifestyle content that encourages them to enjoy adventures together and to make the small moments count. I also share tips that make traveling with kids and life at home more fun.

If you’re interested in having me write for your publication or website I’m happy to send you clips or writing samples.
