Traveling the World Together

Welcome to Whereabouts Worldwide

We are a family of 4 from Minnesota and over the past 10 years we’ve gradually been making our way around the world.

It’s been thrilling to explore its cities and natural wonders, while collecting adventures and amazing experiences along the way.

Despite our busy lives at home, we have always prioritized our true passion…travel.

MANY ADVENTURES AWAIT

DESTINATIONS

We’ve been fortunate to explore numerous destinations around the world. These are our guides and itineraries that highlight these unforgettable locations and adventures.

NATIONAL PARKS

We are currently exploring the stunning national park system as part of our travel bucket list. Each park is unique and provides an incredible opportunity to reconnect with nature.

HIKING

Our favorite activity while traveling is hiking. From shorter day hikes to adventurous multiday treks, there is no shortage of breathtaking trails to explore.
