Hi! I’m Ashlyn, the gal behind Elevated Travel.
My family and I have been traveling the United States full-time since 2021.
My homebase is the Midwest, but the mountains and the ocean are always calling my name.
My background is in travel healthcare, which is what got our family on the road and exploring this huge, incredible country we call home. Seriously, the US is so full of vast beauty and varying landscapes and culture- there is so much to see and learn!
I’m fortunate that I have a career in healthcare that helps me travel to new places all around the US. I know not everyone has that advantage. That is why I became a travel advisor and began this blog- to help everyone experience the beauty this land has to offer regardless of your budget, if you have kids along, or if you have time constraints.
Travel has taught me to embrace the beauty of change, the value of new experiences, and the thrill of discovering places I never knew existed. From towering mountains to quiet coastal towns, I’m on a mission to explore it all—and to inspire others to see just how incredible this country can be.
I believe travel isn’t just about the destinations; it’s about the connections, the lessons, and the memories we create along the way. Let’s explore together!
