Hey there! I’m Deena Johnson—a mom, wife, Air Force veteran, and remote-working travel lover who’s all about balancing family life with adventure. In 2020, my family and I packed up and moved to Naples, Italy, and since then, we’ve embraced life on the go. With my husband (a retired Marine) and our two boys, Giovani (10) and Caleb (6), we’ve explored over 40 countries—and we’re nowhere near done.
Travel, for me, isn’t just about checking off bucket lists. It’s about finding those lesser-known corners of the world that are rich with culture and beauty, often overlooked by the masses. We’re not your typical “tourist trap” family. Whether it’s exploring UNESCO sites or discovering hidden gems, we’re always seeking places that tell a deeper story.
Between juggling work as a remote Analyst and wrangling school schedules, we’ve figured out how to make travel fit our life—not the other way around. My mission is to show that travel is for everyone, no matter your background or what’s on your plate. You don’t have to be a full-time traveler or have a fancy job to find joy in seeing the world. I’m passionate about helping people discover that it’s possible to raise a family, work remotely, and still experience the magic of travel—all while staying grounded in reality.
So, if you’re looking for real, down-to-earth travel advice from a family that’s been there, done that, and lived to tell the tale, welcome to *Global Journey Junkies*. Let’s make the world our playground—together!
