Amy Piper is a Michigan-based freelance travel writer, blogger, photographer, and author specializing in luxury and multi-generational travel. She is a native Michigander who travels through the lens of a food lover. 

As a former program project manager with more than 35 years of experience in the Information Technology field, she’s traveled the world. Along with her personal travel, she’s been to 41 countries and 45 states.

From getting chased by bomb-sniffing dogs in the middle of the night in Bogotá to being refused boarding her plane from Buenos Aires to Paraguay due to the wrong visa to being surrounded by 21 lions in Tanzania on a photo safari, Amy always has an exciting adventure to tell her readers and community of travel enthusiasts.

In 2022, Amy was recognized as the Greater Lansing Certified Tourism Ambassador Star of the Year. She is a published author of two books, “Secret Michigan: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure” and “100 Things to Do in Lansing Before You Die.” She is also the co-author of a collaborative work with 11 other authors called “Midwest Road Trip Adventures.”

She wants to motivate you to pack more travel into your life. You don’t need to get on a plane to travel. Instead, she’ll inspire you to get off the couch and see the world, near or far. Be a tourist in your own town. Go to that new restaurant. Explore the museum you’ve passed every day for years and never visited. Make a day trip on Saturday or go away for the weekend. You don’t need a whole week or two to travel. You don’t need to travel full-time to experience the world.

While she wants you to to plan your next adventure in Michigan or the Midwest, she’ll also take you farther afield. First, she helps you decide where to go, with whom, what to eat, and which activities to pursue. Then, she’ll inspire you to get going.
