In a world where “work hard, play hard” often feels like a cliché, Amy and Miles are redefining what balance truly means—one highway, handcrafted itinerary, and original travel reel at a time.
Together, they’re the duo behind WorkTravelBalance.com, a platform dedicated to helping professionals travel without sacrificing their careers. Their mission? To show that you don’t have to quit your job or win the lottery to explore the world—you just need to get intentional about how you live.
How It All Began
Their story started on the turquoise waters of Key West, Florida, during a lobstering trip that would unknowingly chart the course for a life of adventure, partnership, and purpose. That unexpected meeting led to a bond built on curiosity, shared ambition, and an insatiable love for travel.
Together, they’ve explored over 60 countries, blending their global curiosity with the challenge of staying grounded in their careers. What began as a few weekend road trips soon evolved into a lifestyle. They figured out how to manage client calls from cabins, stay connected on the road, and still find time for hiking, photography, and good coffee in new towns.
