Life’s too short

for average adventures!

Hi! We’re Alicia and Josh - and we want to help you travel more!

We’re all about being conscious and kind, exploring new places like locals, and traveling as sustainably as possible. We can’t wait to introduce you to our favorite people and places along the way.

We chose the name “No Mean Adventures” because mean has two connotations: 1) average and 2) rude. We don’t want to be either of those things! We want to be good global citizens who are open to learning from all we encounter - and we want to have a blast doing it. We hope you’re here because you believe these things too.

We’ve been to 29 countries and 27 states together (and counting!) since we met in 2015. We love hiking, trying local food & drinks, doing new things, and most importantly - we love cheese. We are excited to share what we’ve learned with you and hopefully help you have some not-so-average adventures in the months and years to come.

Invest in quality adventures.

What People Are Saying

ELLEN W.

“My husband and I are relatively inexperienced travelers and Alicia helped us plan the best trip to Europe! She helped us pick great locations based on the type of experiences we wanted to have and she gave us travel tips and tools that made our trip so much smoother. Alicia has so much knowledge to share and working with her helped us make our first big travel adventure amazing!”
MAGGIE P.

“Alicia was a huge help as we planned our trip to Scotland this summer. She gave us recommendations for restaurants, activities, and hidden gems we would not have found on our own, and she organized them on a map that made it so easy for us. As we drove all over the country, we could open the map and find her recs for the particular city we were visiting. And bonus: she led us to the best donuts we’ve ever tasted! Our trip would not have been the same without Alicia’s advice.”
ABBY C.

“Alicia was a huge help to us as first-time trip planners. She helped us find fantastic restaurants, destinations, and views that fit our budget - and we never would’ve found them without her. We couldn’t be more grateful!”
MIKE S.

“Alicia provided the best travel assistance I’ve ever had - I will be using her services again in the future.”
