Mia Lane

Born to a French father and Moroccan mother in Paris, Mia's fascination with maritime exploration began during childhood visits to Marseille's old port, eventually leading her to pursue a career at sea. After becoming one of the youngest female luxury cruise captains, she started documenting her global travels to share with her twin daughters, focusing on sacred sites and folklore that connected to her diverse heritage. Her blog gained popularity when her dramatic photographs of receding glaciers in Alaska and Iceland—taken during her shipping routes—caught the attention of environmental publications, launching her unexpected second career as a respected travel documentarian.
