The After-Five Traveler enjoying the view from a ferry to Victoria, British Columbia

The After-Five Traveler is my digital alter ego.  I am a Marketing professional working a regular 8-5 at a Fortune 500 company.  I have a huge passion for travel.  Born in Mexico, raised in Texas, and currently a transplant to the Midwest, I am always looking for connection and community.  I speak three languages and enjoy reading, photography, and learning about wine.

I am not a travel influencer that travels to exotic destinations.  I am just an everyday gal that has to do her best managing her life, travel budget, and vacation days.  However, I do daily “travel” through books, food, wine, photography, and stories from others.  That’s how I escape my cage! 

I wish to build a travel community were we can share travel inspiration, fun stories, and the things that encourage us to travel and learn about the world and each other.

You can follow my blog at www.theafterfivetraveler.com or follow me on Instagram @theafterfivetraveler where I share my travel inspiration.  You can also contact me at TheAfterFiveTraveler@gmail.com.

Let’s escape the cage together!
