About Us

Hi! We’re Alicia & Josh – the two humans behind No Mean Adventures. 👋💛

We’ve been to 34 countries and 27 states together (and counting!) since we started dating in 2015. We love hiking, trying local food and drinks, doing new things, and most importantly – we love cheese. 🧀

We’ve both had solo adventures on our own - Alicia lived and studied in New Zealand and Costa Rica for a bit (and traveled for her career in international development) and Josh grew up participating in Indianapolis Children’s Choir, which toured the world! (Josh’s brag fact when I met him was that he had performed at both Carnegie Hall AND the Sydney Opera House). We’ve always loved traveling - solo, with friends, and as a couple.

When we found out we were unexpectedly pregnant at the end of 2021, I was anxious about what the future would look like. How would we travel? Would we still be able to live a life we loved? As we made our way through pregnancy, we were determined that we’d find a way to pursue our dreams AND bring our baby along for the adventure. Lil’ Nugg joined our crew in 2022 and we have been figuring it out as we go - putting our own spin on what parenting “should” and can look like.

Since Nugg arrived three years ago, we’ve been to thirteen countries and ten US states. We’ve created guides and compiled ideas of ways to make traveling easier - whether with a baby, partner, friends, or on your own! We’d love to share what we’ve learned with with so you can travel easier.

Thanks for joining us on our journey! We hope to inspire you to chart your own path and choose adventures, too!
