Hi There, I’m Kati!
…and I am an educator and adventure enthusiast based out of upstate New York. I’m also the creator behind WanderWithKT.
My husband and I plan budget-friendly adventures around our teaching schedule which means our weekends and school breaks are usually spent outside. You can work a 9-5 and explore the world around you, one day off at a time!
Our free time is dedicated to exploring the Adirondacks, hiking and camping in our National Parks, and planning epic road trips without breaking the bank. We live for adventures & love to share our experiences with y’all so you can live out your travel dreams too! As you navigate this site, you’ll find a lot of travel tips for the Northeast and US National Parks, but we also share general outdoor tips and recommendations as well as epic road trip routes around the world.
Subscribe to our e-mail list for our monthly newsletter, kindred campfire conversations, where we get a little more personal on the outdoor happenings. When you sign up, you’ll gain access to a bank of amazing, affordable adventure itineraries free to download for your next trip! We’re happy to help ☺
