Reid

Reid co-founded Dotting the Map, a family travel and lifestyle platform, with Hilarye nearly a decade ago. The blog initially chronicled their personal adventures, drawing on Reid's background as a computer programmer, which included airline flight benefits, to explore a wide range of destinations. As their family expanded, the platform's focus naturally evolved, shifting to address the unique considerations and practicalities of traveling with children, establishing itself as a dedicated resource for families seeking similar experiences and guidance. Seeking a lifestyle beyond the conventional, Reid and his family embarked on an entrepreneurial path, transitioning to full-time nomadic travel. Their journey began with extensive exploration of the United States in an RV, with plans to extend their adventures to international destinations. Through Dotting the Map, Reid shares firsthand experiences and practical insights, covering a wide range of topics. These include luxury family resorts and detailed hotel reviews, as well as essential tips for navigating travel with young children. His work illustrates the realities of a life of freedom and travel, openly sharing the challenges and successes of downsizing and embracing a nomadic existence. This offers a realistic perspective for other families considering a similar, less conventional path.
