There are a million things vying for our attention these days, and most of them are online (Yes, yes, we see the irony). The thing is, technology, social media, news, information, articles, communities… none of them are bad in and of themselves! It’s the world we live in. We can’t stick our head in the sand (even though we’d like to sometimes) and most of us don’t see the value of giving up social media all together. Probably because there are a plenty of good things about it!

But, just like living in the era of fast food, we have to learn to make responsible choices with the environment we live in and the tools we utilize. The same is true for demonstrating healthy habits with media (social and otherwise) for our families so they learn and understand how to engage their environments and use these tools in a positive way with moderation.

So here are 10 ways to unplug and re-engage with the ones you love. After all, they deserve our time and attention more than anything.

Most people think that traveling is all about going somewhere, that it’s about the destination. But take a step back and honestly ask why it really is we travel. When we travel, aren’t we truly looking to create something new? When we travel, we aren’t so much looking to “go somewhere” simply for the sake of going, as we are looking to create new experiences and meaningful memories that deepen relationships with people we love. In this episode, ww'll give you a few tips to help us keep adventure close and the ones we love even closer.

Can we be real? Most people tend to overpack when they travel. So how do free yourself from the burden you’re tempted to carry around? There are 6 key strategies concerning the things you absolutely don’t need to take with you and only 3 things you absolutely do. Follow them and they will keep you light, keep you mobile, and, most importantly, keep all that baggage off your back.

Hi! We’re Nate and Alisha Keating. Welcome to Arise and Adventure!

As we sit here surrounded by piles of laundry, shoveling dark chocolate into our mouths, sipping lukewarm coffee, and listening for a peep out of our sleeping kids, we’re dreaming of adventure.

Oh the places we can go and the memories we can make! We call it the travel bug. And, we’ll admit, we’ve been bit hard! Just the other day, someone posted a question on the big FB about whether or not it was worth traveling with kids under 1 and it got us thinking of all the times we took our oldest son on trips even before age two. By then he’d been on 25 plane rides and had been to New York, Seattle, San Francisco, Maui, Puerto Vallarta, Phoenix, Washington D.C., North Carolina (Asheville and the Smoky Mountains), Palm Springs, and many other places.

But it’s not just about the big trips! In fact, it’s mostly about what happens outside of the “big trips” in normal, everyday life.

We believe that every day is an opportunity for adventure.

So how’d you end up on A&A? Perhaps you were told about it, perhaps you stumbled across it on a search engine, maybe you saw a post on social media, or it could be that our attempt at inception has finally worked.

However you got here, we believe that you’re here for a reason. Whether it’s to be inspired, to inspire others, or both, we hope that you’ll take part in a community that seeks to live simply, love deeply, and adventure always.
