Ahmed Turner

Born to an Afro-Brazilian mother and American father who worked in international business, Ahmed grew up navigating between Rio's vibrant culture and occasional visits to the US. After moving to Dallas for college and starting a family, he began documenting his business trips to help colleagues understand how to navigate foreign cities efficiently while still experiencing authentic culture. What started as an internal company resource evolved into a popular blog when colleagues began sharing his guides with their networks, revealing a niche for business travelers who wanted more than just airport-hotel-meeting experiences.
