“Not all who wander are lost.”
J.R.R Tolkien
Over 40 years of publishing stories and photographs has taught seasoned vagabond, Jim Umhoefer that where you go is not as important as how you experience the moments along the way. In short, the journey is truly more valuable than the destination. Travel stories are meant to be shared. As the Seasoned Vagabond, we share tips and tidbits about travel as well as hear about yours. We’ll discuss traveling with kids, camping, resorts, tours, photography, planning a trip and coming back home. We’ll laugh at our misadventures and contemplate the beauty and insights into which we’ve wandered.
Jim Umhoefer is a freelance travel/outdoor writer and photographer from Sauk Centre, Minnesota. He has written over 350 travel and outdoor articles for newspapers and magazines, including the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, the Denver Post, Minneapolis Star Tribune, Better Homes and Gardens, Country Magazine, Home and Away, Snow Country, The World & I, Odyssey and others. In addition, over 3,500 of his photos have been published in regional, national and international markets, including text books, calendars and posters.
