We road tripped from Seattle to Texas for the holidays and during days 4-7 of the trip we spent time in Marfa and Big Bend National Park! We hiked some awesome trails at Big Bend, saw Texas beauty we didn’t know existed, went alien hunting, and enjoyed the charm of small town Marfa.

ABOUT US
We’re Adam and Kathryn, an adventurous married couple living in Seattle. You can often find us driving all around the PNW on the weekends, cuddling our fur child Kona, scoping out the best coffee shops, eating tacos, climbing mountains, and dreaming about Hawaii.
We created “Adventures of A+K” to share our favorite spots in different destinations, give tips on how we save money and maximize our time wherever we go, to make travel planning easier, and to inspire others to live a life of adventure while working full time and on a budget.
We will be sharing 1-2 vlogs a week, so please SUBSCRIBE to follow along on our adventures! 🙂
