Who I Am
I'm Gina, a lifelong storyteller, devoted wife, mom to two grown kids, and a joyful student of both art and music. After nearly three decades of marriage and a life rich with memories, I've learned that curiosity doesn't fade with time. It grows stronger when you let it.
My love of travel began in childhood, thanks to grandparents and parents who believed in showing me the world instead of just telling me about it. Those early adventures sparked a deep appreciation for new places, cultures, and experiences, and they shaped the way I see life as something meant to be explored with open eyes and an open heart.
Today, that sense of wonder shows up everywhere. I sketch and paint as an art student, make music and sing as a music student, and unapologetically embrace my inner Disney nerd. I believe creativity, imagination, and a little magic belong in everyday life, no matter your age.
Through Adventures With Gina, I share stories from my travels, creative pursuits, and moments of everyday wonder. My hope is to encourage others to stay curious, try something new, and follow what lights them up. Whether it's a big trip or a small spark of joy, I believe every day holds the potential for adventure. You just have to be willing to look for it.
My Mission
This space celebrates midlife joy, everyday magic, and the moments that matter. It is about finding wonder in both big journeys and small details - whether that means traveling to new places, savoring meaningful meals, discovering or creating art and music that move the soul, or stepping into the timeless magic of Disney.
The stories here reflect a belief that it is never too late to follow a dream, try something new, or see the world with fresh eyes. Adventures are not measured by distance or expense, but by how fully a moment is lived and remembered.
From local discoveries to far-away destinations, these experiences are shared to spark curiosity, invite reflection, and encourage choosing joy - again and again - at every stage of life.
