A Better Way to Travel

The Untethered Traveler offers curious and open minds a reimagined and more abundant perspective on travel.

When adopted as a way of life, this intentional and mindful approach to time away from home enables us to extract maximum value and meaning from every trip we take.   

The Untethered Traveler’s perspective on budding display here is modeled off an elegant but calculated balance of style and substance fed by intuition, experience, and reverie.  Launched in the Spring of ‘25, we’re just getting started, so journey with us as we share seasoned inspiration, insights and recommendations to help you find your best better way to travel.

Our mission to enable a more fulfilling, more rewarding and more worthwhile way to travel comes to life around the many manifestations and expansive definitions of taste. This lifestyle is in turn uncompromisingly supported by a Traveling with Intent ideology that serves as the backbone and north star of The Untethered Traveler’s unique philosophy on the transformative power of travel.

By tapping into that power we don’t just see new places, we turn the gaze inward to quietly, sometimes boldly discover the passion, purpose and possibility that lies within.

And, I promise that’s bound to be a trip worth taking.

Travel with Purpose. Travel with Intent.
