This is how it all started…
I was planning our vacation for our 1 year anniversary/honeymoon and I decided to contact a travel agent for assistance. As I began speaking with the travel agent, I realized my research was more comprehensive, more detailed, and that I was able to find better deals than the travel agent. I began to talk with my wife, Kelsey, about it all and realized that I was passionate about finding the best deal, but also about finding the best trip possible within our budget. I enjoyed the research and found myself watching videos and reading articles well after we had decided on our trip. So my wife and I discussed starting a travel agency or travel blog… but then came the question of what we would call the business.
After much research and discussion, Kelsey suggested Window Seat Travel Escapes. Immediately, I felt it was catchy and unique, but there was one problem. I rarely get the window seat when we travel. She likes to have the window seat so she has a place to rest her head while she sleeps. After much discussion, I decided it was the perfect name for our business, because regardless of whether you are the one traveling and relaxing, or whether you are just looking for a bird’s eye view into our travels, this is the perfect place to find everything you are looking for in regards to travel. So while I like to call myself the “Window Seat Traveler,” that title actually belongs to my wife. However, with this blog, we hope to give you the window seat view of all our travels moving forward.
