About O’Phalen Adventures
Our family has always been what I’d describe as adventurous, but we kicked it up a notch in 2020. We were professional theatre people in New York City for over 10 years, then both parents made career shifts after starting a family — Kate got her MPA and Dan became a recruiter. The pandemic was difficult, but gave us the precious gift of remote work. Because of the shift to remote work, our family has never been closer and we are able to pursue our dream of fulltime travel.
When we left NYC in 2020, we planned to be away for just the summer on the coast of Maine in a charming and remote coastal village. That summer turned into a year and a half of airbnbs all over the country, which turned into buying and renovating our own RV, which turned into a life as nomads for the foreseeable future!
We love exploring museums and cultural immersion as much as we love hiking up mountains and kayaking fjords. We love telling stories with the photos and videos that we take. We love slow travel and spending time at local libraries. And we love the online community that we’ve built for ourselves so that we never feel lonely.
We truly love this life we’ve built, and we want to share everything we learn with you!

We’re so glad you’re here.
Family travel can feel overwhelming at times, which is why so many put off traveling until retirement. We love encouraging families to do the big, scary, exciting things now, and we hope that our travel guides or a personalized consult take a lot of the guesswork out of it for you!
