About First Mate Emily

I’m going to give you the origin story for the channel first mate Emily, and how i have spent the majority of my life traveling to new destinations. 

 

When I was 18 I had a great paying job as a hairstylist, and an appetite to travel. So much so that I made a wacky promise to myself that I would travel someplace new every month for a year. This was the same year I got my first suitcase from an aunt for Christmas.

 

All the places I visited were new to me, and often a beautiful beach or major city. My family didn’t seem to have the travel bug like I did, and for the life of me, the only vacation i can remember as a child was to the Bahamas in seventh grade, which was also my first ever plane ride. 

 

Fast forward to today, and that appetite has yet to be satisfied, only to be propelled further by 2020’s pandemic and the realization that i just simply can’t sit at home. 

 

On my channel you will meet myself, my husband Carlos, and my son carter, and we will be showing you all the ways to travel and have new adventures by boat, plane, or Rv. 

 

I hope you stick around for more! 

Be the first to know whats up!
