The Travels with Kev website caters to beginner travelers or those looking to change how they travel. The articles come out of my travel experiences and research. Currently, this site has a focus on going on Amtrak. Other travel modes of transportation, will sneak in too as the site grows.
Often when we look for travel advice online, such as Facebook groups or online forums, and soon we find ourselves confused or frustrated. Internet trolls came out and ruined the fun of research. After looking at the negativity that appears on those resources, we might find that we second guess our ideas.

It doesn’t matter where you go, but getting out there is what matters, get out, and explore. I hope Travels with Kev inspires you to plan your next adventure that pushes your boundaries.
If you do not know where to begin, contact me so we can work together on getting you started. I am working on setting up a travel coaching program to help you out at whatever level you are at now.
2020 Travel with Kev’s travel plans

My travel plans will include several trips back and forth to Papillion, NE, a suburb of Omaha, NE. These trips will consist of trains, maybe buses, and flying to get there, oh yeah plus road trips.
This year will include a big trip with my dad to celebrate his retirement. The tour will consist of five trains with layovers in New Orleans, LA, and either El Paso, TX, or Los Angeles, CA.
Besides Nebraska, and my dad’s trips, I am working on a trip to Philadelphia, PA, and the Clearwater area of Florida.
Of course, there will be several trips to Chicago as well.
Here is what I did last year, it was exciting and some cute photos.
