Mari Johnson

Hi, I’m Mari. A new-ish mother who lives abroad, thrives on travel, creativity, and the outdoors. I grew up in California, in a family that spent weekends hiking, swimming, and enjoying picnics on mountainsides. I currently live in New Zealand with my partner, Nick, and our son, where we enjoy much of the same activities. While I’ve done some adventurous things like solo traveling, hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, and moving to the other side of the world, parenthood still feels like my biggest adventure yet. I hope to create a space where like-minded people can connect, learn, and grow together.
