Hello there!
I'm Griff!
I’m a 29-year-old Marketer and travel enthusiast from Kansas City, MO, and the face behind Griff To Go. While working full-time, I’m taking every free minute to follow my greatest passion: traveling the world, taking photos far from home, and diving into new cultures.
When I’m not traveling, working, or blogging, chances are high you will find me catching up with friends and family, sipping coffee, or watching the Kansas City Chiefs or Formula 1!
