Hey! I'm Emily - a NC based outdoor lover whose goal is to share enjoyable movement and free fitness spots, pet-friendly adventure spots, and highlight small businesses both near and far that are worth visiting. I spent 4 years in Asia as a child and since then have traveled to 38 countries and 33 states, so I'm generally more comfortable traveling than staying at home.
About 2 years ago, I decided to combine two of my biggest passions (travel and wellness) to create my blog, The Planking Traveler. Over the years, many of my trips have been ruined by my own sickness because I would throw “healthy” out the window once I left for vacation. Though everyone needs some time to indulge, I realized that being healthy is a lifestyle to embrace and not something to abandon while on the go.
I love sharing about fitness and health - this post of mine is currently ranking near the top of page 1 on Google: https://theplankingtraveler.com/2019/01/03/fitness-motivation-getting-paid-to-be-active-a-review-of-the-stepbet-app/

In my happy place @_alley51_ #alley51clt #alley51 #alley51eats #cltfoodhall
Do you get headaches a lot? I tend to carry a lot of tension in my neck which results in a lot of pain so I was very glad to find this natural headache salve from @rowe_casa_organics. It only takes a little bit to relieve the tension and helps me avoid taking NSAIDS! #rowecasawellness #musthave #headacherelief #naturalheadacherelief #headacheremedy
I'm so thankful for this pill wrap that helps our pup take her medicine without any issues! @undertheweatherpet @stackinfluence #undertheweatherpet #undertheweatherpetpartner
Need a pick me up without the sugar?? Give @tamateaco a try! Several tasty flavors, natural energy and NC based! Which flavor would you choose? @tamateaco @stackinfluence #tamatea #tamateapartner #tamatime #ncsmallbusiness #shoplocal
Grounding has so many health benefits and can even support better sleep! If you're not able to get outside every day, I highly recommend this grounding mat from @groundluxe as it's a good way to get the benefits even if the weather isn't ideal. Pets love it too 🐶 😺 💜 @groundluxe @stackinfluence #groundluxe #groundluxepartner #earthing #grounding
If you haven't been to @kalamaki_nc - go visit! I've never been to a restaurant that made me feel so authentically transported to the country! Peep the cute plush kitty cat napping 😺 The food was amazing, service was super fast and make sure you try the Loukoumades (Greek donut holes)!! #kalamaki #greekfoodlovers #gyro #loukoumades #greekdonuts #greekstreetfood

My favorite way to eat avocados is in a rich smoothie blended with cherries and chocolate. Tastes almost like chocolate mousse! What's your favorite way to eat 🥑? #lidlavoteslasweepstakes @lidlus @avosfromperu

Whether you’re looking to plan a road trip, book a flight, or plan out a journey by train or boat, make sure you check out these resources to save you a lot of money and make planning a breeze ⛱️ I’ve been using Autoslash for about 5 years now and they’ve consistently found me the best rental car rates. I just plug in my departure airport and a date range (can be several months), and it will bring up a map showing the cheapest flights everywhere! Rome2Rio is great because it includes local transportation, so it tells you the cheapest way to get from point A to point B, whether it is on a bus, train, ferry, flight or even a ride share. Today I found a flight from Raleigh to Denver for $41 and to Orlando for $31!
She has extensive travel insight to offer, having lived abroad in South America and Europe and regularly traveling between Canada and the US with her dual citizenship. My father was a big proponent of travel and was my main cheerleader in taking a gap year (a few gap years haha) and still encouraging me now to be a digital nomad. I understand finding all this information on website hosting, SEO, networking ,etc can be difficult, but all that information is in one place and the information is provided for a lifetime and it gets updated with new free or budget friendly programs the entrepreneur can use. I also am bias with Croatia because I met so many amazing people and remet a friend I originally met on my gap year when I was 18 (6 years prior).
They served their purpose, but once we started getting Green Chef meals, I knew I’d never go back to any other meal delivery service because Green Chef tastes so much better and I like being able to freshly prepare the meals instead of heating up pre-made food in the microwave. If you haven’t tried Green Chef before, they are a meal kit delivery service where they send you all the ingredients needed to create each recipe and most meals have taken 30 minutes or less to prepare. A bonus is that all the meals are bursting with color and they look beautiful once plated – believe me, I’m NOT skilled in the kitchen, but their ingredients and easy to follow instructions will make you look like you have professional chef skills! If you’d like to try Green Chef, here is my link to receive $55 off your first box.
After being on the waiting list for almost 6 months, I finally got the invitation to sign up for Bumped Stock Rewards, which is a marketplace that allows you to earn fractional stock (instead of cash back) at a wide variety of stores. If shopping online, start your shopping through the Bumped app or website, and click on the store you want to purchase from. If shopping in-store, all you need to do is add the in-store offers from the app as shown below, then purchase through your linked credit card. As I mentioned, we purchase all our dog food and grooming products from Chewy, and we already have stock with them, so I was thrilled to find a way to earn even more stock in their company through Bumped.
