Kinsley Searles is a travel writer, editor, and service journalist who grew up on cross-country roadtrips and national parks visits. She started her professional writing career in luggage reviews, taking dozens of suitcases on real trips to find what's really worth the money. From indie bookstores to family-owned restaurants, she loves finding the best local-loved hidden gems in every new place she visits. A Midwesterner through and through, she grew up in Kansas and now lives in Indiana. Her favorite parts of traveling: trying new foods, visiting roadside attractions, enjoying a ghost tour, and collapsing on a hotel bed at the end of a long day.
