Hello! I’m Kimberley, a lifelong explorer, creative and journalist with a passion for uncovering the world’s hidden gems. My journey took a thrilling turn when I met my husband, Timothy, a lovely kind-hearted Marine, in Africa. Together, we’ve embarked on an extraordinary adventure, living in diverse locales such as the United States, New Zealand, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and Croatia. We now find ourselves in vibrant Philadelphia.
Through every move, I’ve fallen more in love with the world—its landscapes, cultures, flavors, and people. Nature, in all her forms, continues to inspire me. Along the way, I’ve met remarkable individuals with captivating stories that have shaped my own. Being a global nomad and a devoted nature lover has led me to a joyful creative path. I write children’s books, songs, poetry, and inspirational quotes, as a hobby—little gifts from my heart to the world.
