Samantha Gutierrez

Samantha grew up in Dublin with a Spanish-Mexican father and Irish mother, developing an early fascination with how different cultures express themselves through architecture and public art. After moving to the US for graduate school and settling into a technical writing career, she began documenting her family's travels with her teenage daughter as a way to connect her to both sides of her heritage. What started as a personal project documenting temple architecture and roadside attractions evolved into a respected travel blog when her unique perspective on cultural landmarks and street art gained a devoted following among mature travelers seeking meaningful cultural experiences.
