Adventurous travel with off the beaten path ideas and cost saving tips!
There’s this commencement speech written by Mary Schmich of the Chicago Tribune in 1997 called “Wear Sunscreen”. You’ve probably heard it. It was later recorded with background music, and I’ve heard it quoted at several graduation ceremonies over the years. If you are not familiar or need a dose of inspiration, have a listen here.
It’s happening. I’ve denied it. I’ve ignored it. I’ve tried to go the other direction. But, it’s happening. I am turning 40 exactly one year and one month from today. Cue the violins.

This little girl has haunted me since I first saw her December 1, 2002. Something about her struck me as I walked past the thousands of mugshots that hang on the walls of S21 Prison Camp, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. She’s probably 5 or 6 years old in this photograph- her mugshot- the last photo taken of her before she was killed for her “crimes”. She has stuck with me through the years and continually whispers “live…I didn’t get that chance.”
I am Susan Taylor, hence the “Taylor” in Taylored Adventures. I am a wife and mother who loves to travel. In fact, I am a wife and mother because of travel! I have visited 35+ countries, but I believe that adventure can be found across the globe or your own backyard. I am always on the lookout for off the beaten path exploration and ways to save money so I can travel more.
