She has spent time living in Thailand, Mexico, Indonesia, and Spain and is our local expert in these areas.

Adventure in You is an adventure travel blog that was started by yours truly along with my partner. It went from being our personal blog to now being a full blown adventure travel magazine. In the beginning stages of the blog, we were trying to find a niche that we could focus on. There are literally SO MANY blogs out there and we wanted to find a way to stand out. With much excitement, we are happy to announce that we are currently looking for writers to join the Adventure in You team! (cue in imaginary hoots and claps!)

Writing for Adventure in You

While there are many websites that write about adventure and all the fun activities they do, we decided to start reviewing them. Since we decided on this, Adventure in You quickly partnered with many adventure companies from around the world who were all eager to get their adventures reviewed. To help us with the insurmountable feat of reviewing adventures from all over the world, we decided to form the Adventure Review Team. Together, we are a band of travel misfits who gallivant around the world reviewing different adventures from jungle trekking to skydiving over the Swiss Alps. Our reviews are geared to provide you useful information, a good dose of entertainment, and more importantly, an honest opinion and account of our experience.

To help us grow this section of our blog, we are looking for more talented adventure junkies to join our Adventure Review Team who are based or traveling around SOUTHEAST ASIA.
