// About Me
Katie Hart: Travel Writer, Content Creator, and Founder of Travel With Katie Hart
I was born in New York and grew up as the youngest of four girls, which helped shape my love for connection, adventure, and making the most of every moment. I married my husband, Zachary, last year, and this year we welcomed our first son, making this an incredibly special and exciting season of our lives.
My love for travel began in high school, when I spent four years saving for a school trip to Europe that would completely change the way I viewed the world. Zach and I have been exploring together since we started dating in 2018, taking adventures both big and small and creating countless memories along the way.
Today, we work together to write the travel guides, stories, and helpful resources you’ll find throughout this blog. We enjoy sharing our experiences honestly and in a way that feels realistic and relatable, from quick weekend getaways to once-in-a-lifetime international trips. We hope to help make travel feel more approachable while inspiring others to explore new places and create meaningful memories of their own.
You can learn more about our story, our family, and the people behind the blog on our About Us page.
