About Ancient Travel and Why This Journey Matters

This site started from a simple truth: time matters.

I raised my two kids on my own from the time they were in diapers. That season of life taught me what is worth doing, what can wait, and what should never be taken for granted.

Then cancer made that lesson even sharper. After surviving colon cancer and major surgery, I stopped thinking about travel as a bucket-list checkbox and started seeing it as a way to feel fully alive while we are here.

Ancient places changed how I look at everything. Standing where people built, loved, prayed, fought, and endured thousands of years ago has a way of putting modern noise in perspective. You feel small in the best possible way - connected to something older and bigger than yourself.

Ancient Travel is built for people who want that feeling too. Not just pretty photos or quick lists, but thoughtful guidance that helps you arrive with context, respect, and wonder.

If this site helps you take one meaningful trip, slow down for one unforgettable moment, or reconnect with what matters most, then it has done its job.
