ABOUT LINDSAY NIEMINEN:

Whether you are looking for inspiration or education, you are sure to find it here on Carpe Diem OUR Way. With her boys in tow, Lindsay Nieminen, creator of Carpe Diem OUR Way, shows off the best family holidays, whether close to home or a non-traditional family travel destination!

One week you may find her paddling Lake Louise in Canada and the next, hiking to Petra in Jordan! Lindsay loves sharing all of the must-do’s with her boys as well as looking for off-the-beaten-path authentic cultural experiences where she can listen and learn about other people’s history as well as their daily lives today!

Lindsay provides INSPIRATION, EDUCATION, and INFORMATION on how just about any destination can be one to enjoy as a family! She is passionate about showing that parents should not put off their travel dreams until their children are older. The future is not guaranteed for anyone, and she aims to show them how to seize the moment and share their bucket list adventures, or even their first vacation with their children.
