ABOUT THE GRATEFUL TRAVELER

I am Vikki Moran, the former Publisher/Owner of the Capital Region Living Magazine, and a nationally known travel writer and founder of the Grateful Traveler. I have been writing about food and travel for many years, bringing to light the best of the Capital Region/Adirondacks, the Hudson Valley Region and now the world.

Along with my husband, Dan, we have lived in the Forever Wild preserved woods of the Adirondacks enjoying mountain/seasonal fun. We also loved our gentleman’s farm in Upstate, New York, as well as living in a suburb of Boston. Now, we call New Symrna Beach, Florida, home. Wherever home is, I have traveled and relished doing so — a true road warrior and air jockey but with a firm grip on luxury travel.

After my life’s biggest challenge — diagnosed with a rare form of melanoma and a reoccurrence five years later—I became more determined than ever to enjoy traveling the world. I now cancer-free, eternally blessed and always grateful. That is how The Grateful Traveler was born and lives!

Please travel along with me. It can certainly help you to learn about great destinations, properties, and experiences.
