Finding Gina Marie – Travel the World
they/them

We’re Judy and Kevin, full-time travelers who left our corporate jobs and got rid of everything. We set out in 2022 with only carry-ons, a suitcase and a decision that the next chapter could look completely different.

We share not just where we go, but how travel changes us—the surprises, challenges and deeper purpose we’re discovering. If you’re wondering whether this kind of life is actually possible—financially, practically, physically, you're in the right place.

What you'll find here:
👉 Destination videos with a point of view, not just a highlight reel
💰 Transparent cost breakdowns in every destination
🏛️ Local stories and history that brings places to life
👋 What it means to feel at home anywhere—even without a home base

Why Finding Gina Marie?
In 2021, at 55, Judy reunited with her birth family. The name her Italian birth mother gave her—Gina Marie—and that reunion sparked both this channel and this new way of life.

Wander more. Worry less. Bring a passport. ❤️
Judy & Kevin

NEW SUNDAY EPISODE: We just got back from an incredible safari in Kenya—and yes, that video is coming! We have a LOT of footage to sort through. 🦁 In the meantime, we looked back at more than 90 places we’ve stayed and narrowed them down to 9 affordable cities worth staying a month; places where everyday life worked, there was plenty to do, and we still wanted more time. We’d love to hear the places you’d put on your list! ❤️

NEW EPISODE: When you travel together for months at a time, who does all the work? Planning, transportation, money, meals, laundry, visas and regular life doesn’t stop just because you’re traveling. This weekend, we’re sharing what 3½ plus years of full-time travel has taught us about dividing the load, what we’ve gotten wrong, and why sharing the work doesn’t mean sharing every task.

And right now, we’re VERY excited to be in Kenya getting ready for safari! 🇰🇪 ❤️

NEW EPISODE: We have an amazing video from Victoria Falls, but both Zambia and Zimbabwe have so much to see and do that we're incredibly late releasing it. It's worth the wait and includes beautiful footage from the two sides. Is this a place on your bucket list?

We're in Livingstone, Zambia! And while we're in a terrific resort hosted by some of the kindest people ever, our wi-fi has been too spotty for us to release a video this week. Instead, we're working the best we can poolside. We have one more episode coming from Cape Town, but that will be in two weeks. We're planning to share our video from both sides of Victoria Falls next Saturday. In the meantime, we've been busy hanging out with some VERY cool "friends." Here are a few pics of what's been going on! 

And if you have the time, we'd love for you to check out last week's Cape Town episode, which many of you may have missed. We think you'll enjoy it. 🎥 What Most Visitors Miss About Cape Town 🇿🇦 https://youtu.be/W7sqjT-fPPM

NEW SUNDAY EPISODE: Cape Town’s beauty comes with a complicated history. We visit Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela spent 18 years imprisoned, and meet two former political prisoners whose words made a huge impact on us. Then, at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, we discover an unexpected connection to the island’s much older story of division. ❤️

NEW SUNDAY EPISODE: Some places are beautiful in the way you expect. Cape Town keeps surprising you. We set out for one of the city’s most famous day trips and quickly realized this was going to be much more than a checklist of landmarks. The scenery kept getting bigger, the road kept getting wilder, and Cape Town kept finding new ways to outdo itself. ❤️

NEW SUNDAY EPISODE: Most visitors come to Tallinn for its fairytale Old Town. But there's so much more to discover. Join us as we experience Estonia's unforgettable Midsummer traditions, uncover the stories written into the waterfront, step inside Fat Margaret, and explore the neighborhoods that reveal how this medieval city continues to evolve. ❤️

NEW EPISODE THIS SUNDAY: Happy Independence Day to our U.S. friends, and sincere thanks to the veterans and military families whose service helped protect the freedoms we celebrate today. Our next episode is a big one for us. After four years of paperwork, waiting, and wondering, Judy finally received the news that she’s been recognized as an Italian citizen. But as we quickly learned, even life-changing good news can come with a catch. We’re sharing the real moment we found out and what this milestone means for our future travels, our time in Europe, and our channel. ❤️
