Hi there! Let us introduce ourselves

We are the Strecker family - James, Angie, & Rowan. We enjoy spending quality time together in our home city of Charlotte, NC as well as exploring new places in the US and abroad. We hope you’ll follow along on our lovely little journey.

James

Hi. I’m James. I’m originally from New Jersey but have lived in Charlotte since 2004.

The love of travel and the outdoors was instilled in me by my grandparents at an early age—and that passion has only grown over the years.

Now, as a husband and father who also manages a full time career in banking, I understand the need to appropriately manage work/life balance and get away as often as possible.

I love when Angie comes up with new and fantastic trips to take. She’s quite the planner and is always looking for places to check off our bucket list.

Hopefully we’ll get a chance to meet a few of you on our travels too!

Angie

Hi. I’m Angie. I am originally from Ohio where I grew up and went to college. I moved to Charlotte in 2002 and have been here ever since.

Growing up, my parents used to take my sister and I on trips all across the US. I would assume that is what sparked my love for the outdoors and experiencing new places. My relationship with my family is very important so frequent trips to Ohio and meeting them in nearby destinations is a must!

I love being a wife & mother and cherish any time the three of us get to spend as a family. I get the pleasure of planning our adventures and love learning from other bloggers and travelers. Thanks to all who share.

Rowan

Hi. I’m Rowan. I am a little over 2 now and have developed quite the personality. I love being outside and anything involving trucks. My all time favorite trucks are fire trucks, construction trucks and trash trucks. My latest obsession is tow trucks.

When I am not running around or making a mess, I am actually a really sweet & funny little guy. I am happy most of the time and just enjoy playing and having fun.

My passport already holds more stamps than my parents did when they were in their 20s. I think its pretty safe to say I get to experience some pretty cool things for being so young.
