Welcome! I’m Jody!

Jody Halsted is an award-winning writer and podcaster specializing in Ireland, RVing, and Midwest travel.

Based in the Midwest, Jody is a rambling soul who would love nothing more than to call her RV home, but until then she ‘lives the dream’ in Iowa with her husband and two daughters (along with a small menagerie of furry friends). Never one to follow the path most traveled, the family’s adventures usually involve quite a bit of driving, a lot of hiking, and some sort of meal cooked over fire.

Jody travels to Ireland annually, usually for weeks or months at a time, and has become an oft-cited and well-known resource on Irish tourism, travel in Ireland, and Ireland family travel. Often exploring places most tourists -and many locals!- have never heard of, Jody assists hundreds of families, groups, and couples with their Ireland vacation plans each year.
