What is Unnamed Adventures?

Unnamed Adventures is a lifestyle and mindset that we, as a family, are striving to live by. It entails experiencing and living life to the fullest while always trying to pursue our dreams, whatever that may be!

We chose "Unnamed Adventures" for our social media name because we wanted something that encompases the unforseen adventures that are upcoming and yet unknown, the heart and mindset of setting off to see where the road takes us, and the willingness to go with the flow - even when things don't go way. We started this untraditional lifestyle in the spring of 2019 and through our failures and successes we have found a lifestyle that works for us. It allows us to follow our passions, set our own schedule and not be tied to the "traditional" lifestyle. 

Our family consists of Jake, Amy, baby Maverick and our dog Pippie. We were married in 2018 and welcomed our son in 2021. 

We are insurance adjusters by trade and nomadic adventurers at heart! We are debt free and love to travel and experience anything that life offers at every chance we get!

Our blog and podcast share our never-ending story of the transformation of our previous "traditional lifestyle" into one where we travel the world, debt free, and live out our dreams. Being outdoor enthusiasts, we will venture to new places, try new things and share our experiences with the world.

Bio's

I enjoy backpacking, skiing, traveling and photography! I grew up in the Midwest and gained a love of the outdoors from my dad. Some of my favorite childhood memories are hunting or skiing with him. I fell in love with backpacking after college and have enjoyed countless trips around the US. Since 2009 I have had my own photography business and enjoy taking family, engagement and wedding photos. Landscape photography is my favorite because it allows me to share with others some of the gorgeous places I have had the privilege to enjoy. I hope to inspire people to pursue their dreams and to not listen to the nay sayers.

I am a city slicker/jock turned into an outdoors enthusiast. I love to experience many and all new things; from finding a new trail to the latest food craze talked about by locals. I grew up playing ice hockey and that is when my passion for travel began. I have met lifelong friends while playing junior and college hockey. In college, when living in Montana, I finally experienced my first true mountain range when I went backpacking in the Beartooth Wilderness with my cousin and uncle. From all my adventures I hope to encourage others to live their lives as they truly want to, whatever that may be.
