Hi there, I’m Penny

I’ve spent years navigating the world—from the winding back alleys of Europe to the high-stakes logistics of Florida’s theme parks. While I’ve been documenting my adventures and perfecting my travel hacks for a long time, I’m so excited to finally step into the digital world as the lead blog writer for Apex Getaways.

My philosophy is pretty simple: a vacation should actually feel like one. I’ve learned the hard way that the difference between a dream trip and a logistical nightmare usually comes down to the small stuff—the right shoes, the perfect timing, and, most importantly, having enough space to breathe.

After a lifetime of traveling for the love of it, I’m thrilled to be in my first professional role where I can peel back the curtain on “hidden” costs and help you reclaim the magic of your getaways. When I’m not writing, I’m usually scouting out the best multi-bedroom villas or plotting my next great escape. I believe every traveler deserves a “pro-tip” advantage, and I’m here to make sure you have yours!
