Hi, we’re Brad & Mary.
We’ve been traveling together for more than 30 years, from slow mornings in Paris and long lunches in Italy to turquoise water in the Caribbean. Somewhere along the way we figured out a simple truth: the healthier you are, the more of the world you get to see.
The Roaming Couple is where we share the places that inspire us, the lessons we’ve learned getting there, and the habits that keep us on the move.
Our Story
Health and fitness became part of our family’s life when our daughter started competitive cheerleading at age five. Suddenly we were thinking about nutrition, energy and staying active, not just for her but for ourselves too. We’ve been AdvoCare fans for years, and it’s been part of our routine ever since. Decades later, those habits are exactly what keep us exploring.
Today we call Charleston, South Carolina home, close to our youngest daughter, and the Lowcountry is our home base between adventures.
What You’ll Find Here
- Travel inspiration: places worth the trip, and the stories that make them unforgettable.
- Honest, practical tips: what 30+ years on the road has taught us about traveling with less stress.
- Travel health & safety: staying well on the road, written for active adults 50+.
- Smart ways to save: the tools and deals that make travel easier on your budget.
Our Philosophy
Eat well, move often, and enjoy life: the gelato, the glass of wine, the long walk afterward. Staying healthy isn’t about giving things up. It’s about being able to say yes to more trips.
