Map Bound

My name is Shane with MapBound.

I am an avid traveler with a passion for exploring new places, cultures, and experiences. To date, I have visited 16 countries and 41 U.S. states, building a broad perspective through firsthand travel across a wide range of destinations.

My love for travel includes both land and sea adventures—I have completed three cruises, with another already booked, and I have traveled to Europe twice with a future European trip on the calendar. I also enjoy rail travel, having experienced train journeys throughout Europe as well as traveling on Amtrak within the United States.

I often travel with the people closest to me, including my younger sister, mom, aunt, and best friend, and I value the meaningful connections that come from sharing these experiences. Outside of travel, I am a dedicated animal lover and enjoy opportunities to be around and learn about animals wherever I go.
