Sure, it's difficult. Sure there are obstacles and setbacks. Sometimes it's crazy, astounding, amazing, funny, frustrating, and exasperating, but no matter what happens...life is always a trip!
About Us
Between them, YourLifeIsATrip.com co-founders, Judith Fein and Ellen Barone have written and photographed for more than 100 publications, traveled from Mog Mog to Matmata, coached, made films, given talks, been hired as experts and advisers, blogged, taught math, taught travel writing, taught photography, volunteered in jails, won awards for playwriting, screenwriting and travel journalism, appeared on radio and TV, helmed websites, sold screenplays in Hollywood, lived in Europe, Africa and Mexico.
Why did they start YourLifeisATrip.com? Everywhere you look, there are cutbacks, layoffs, bailouts, belt-tightening. But, being cockeyed optimists, Ellen and Judith see this as a period of restructuring - deciding on priorities and what is most important in life.
Joining the team as copy editor is Eric Lucas, a widely published international journalist (and frequent YourLifeIsATrip.com contributor) specializing in travel, business, natural history and sustainability.

A group travel blog, YourLifeIsATrip.com was founded on the belief that there is no division between your travels, your life, your soul, your wellbeing, your relationships, your money, your work and your play. The site features different voices, different subjects, all related by the common theme – life as a trip.
