Ingrid Payne

Ingrid's dual passion for sports and art history emerged during her college years when she balanced NCAA volleyball with an art history minor, leading to a transformative backpacking trip through Europe after graduation. After five years coaching volleyball at a Division III college, she took a sabbatical to complete a skydiving certification course in New Zealand, which evolved into a travel blog documenting both her adrenaline adventures and her visits to obscure art museums and wifi-friendly work spots. Her unique blend of athletic prowess and cultural curiosity resonated with followers seeking to maximize limited vacation time with both adventure and enrichment.
