Hello!
I’m Stephen MacNeil—a tax professional with a love for travel. As I begin my transition to retirement, I have no plans to slow down. In fact, in so many ways, I feel this is just the beginning of living! Here, I share my adventures, insights, and tips to hopefully inspire and empower you to live your dreams through travel.
You won’t find me bungee jumping off a bridge or scuba diving for lost treasure. I’ll save that for the true daring. But my travel isn’t without adventure. I always attempt to do something new and challenging with each journey. I try my best to capture what I feel and experience through my writings and photographs.
This blog is more than just a collection of my thoughts—it’s a community. Subscribe to the One Checked Bag newsletter, where I unpack some deeper insights on my destinations, musings from the road, travel tips, and other relevant and useful information.
