Lesli made her way to Atlanta over 20 years ago, after living abroad. She’s spending 2021 exploring the West Coast in an RV with her family and sharing this adventure from a Southerner’s perspective at 365 Atlanta Traveler.

She relishes the discovery of obscure, offbeat and unwonted places, and she will chat up any willing stranger to uncover a new secret locale. If she’s not cleaning the RV, she’s either hiking the trails or checking out the whiskey scene at their current location.

Lesli has two kiddos -Cooper and Elliot- and she’s happily married to her soul mate, Dan.
