About Easy USA Trips:
Welcome to EasyUSATrips.com – your go-to spot for stress-free travel ideas across the USA. I’m Kathy Brown, a Tennessee-based travel blogger and former creator of FindingKathyBrown.com. That blog was my first love and taught me everything about travel blogging, photography, and connecting with readers. But after a few years, I realized something important: I didn’t want my next blog to be about me. I wanted it to be about you, the curious traveler looking for easy, fun, and low-stress ways to explore this beautiful country.
Who is this blog for?
If you’re over 50 (or love to travel at a relaxed pace), you’re in the right place. I created this site for folks who love scenic drives, weekend getaways, dog-friendly adventures, and charming towns off the beaten path. If you are looking for a bucket list road trip or just a quick escape, EasyUSATrips.com is packed with inspiration to make your next getaway simple and memorable.
Who’s behind the blog (besides me)?
Let me introduce my travel crew:
Mr. Jax – our curly, goofy, lotion-obsessed Goldendoodle who steals hearts everywhere we go. He’s the official co-pilot for every dog-friendly adventure.
Steve – my loving husband and forever partner-in-crime. (The crime of travel, of course!) From coastal drives, tropical beaches, to mountain escapes, he’s always up for the next adventure.
Why “Easy USA Trips”?
Because travel shouldn’t feel overwhelming. Easy USA Trips is written to help real people plan vacations without stress, spreadsheets, or 10-tab deep research. From sunny beach days to cozy mountain getaways, I’m here to share the spots worth your time—and the ones you can skip.
So grab your bags (and maybe a leash), and let’s hit the road. I’m so glad you’re here!
Where else can you Find Me?
You can find me on social media, my content online is much different then my travel blog. You might like my content if you are a woman over 50 and believe No Fool No Fun are words to live by!
