As travelers, we love connecting with others and sharing new experiences together while we are abroad. We want to bring that same energy and excitement to your hometown!
Of course, our group trips will always be there for you when you are ready for your next adventure, but until then, stay connected with the Under30Experiences travel community at home through our meetup events! Traveler meetups are a great way to meet new friends, socialize with like-minded people, and discover the excitement that your own city has to offer.

Danielle Kanclerz
San Francisco, CA / Digital Nomad
Trips been on: Peru, Thailand, Guatemala, Yucatan Peninsula, Morocco
Favorite trip experience: Roasting marshmallows on an active volcano in Guatemala!
Bio: Hey, I'm Danielle! I'm from Metro Detroit originally but have lived in San Francisco for the past five years. Currently, I'm calling that my part-time home base though while living out my digital nomad dreams. I love travel, urban exploration, museums, small-scale theater productions, electronic music, and learning about different cultures! I work in international education and college admissions, which takes me to far flung destinations around the world but I set aside a fair amount of time for personal travels as well. I've been to 41 different countries (and counting!) and, longer term, am hoping to relocate to Berlin where I currently try to spend a few months a year.
Shelby Broughton
Atlanta, GA
Trips I’ve been on: Morocco, Iceland, and South Africa. Future trips: Costa Rica, Bali
Favorite Trip Experience: Riding camels through the Sahara desert
Bio: Hello! My name is Shelby and I am originally from Kernersville, North Carolina but currently reside in Atlanta, GA. I work in the healthcare field full time in Orthopedics but indulge in various hobbies outside of work including camping and hiking, art, intramurals and having new experiences with friends. I love to travel, and finding U30X has opened so many doors to different parts of the world. You can always find me trying new things or meeting a new friend!
Danyelle Parris
SE Michigan
My U30X/O30X Trips: Costa Rica Starter, Belize, Costa Rica Adventure, Thailand
Favorite Experience: whitewater rafting the absolutely beautiful Pacuare River
Bio: Hi! I'm Danyelle, and if there's one thing I love more than traveling, it's being out on the water. Whether it's boating, kayaking, swimming, or simply soaking in the serene beauty, you'll find me embracing every moment spent on the water. What I love about U30X/O30X is the opportunity to explore the world's most fascinating destinations while immersing myself in local cultures and forming lifelong connections with like-minded adventurers. Now, I'm excited to bring that same spirit of adventure and camaraderie to Southeast Michigan, sharing the joy of travel and exploration with others who share my passions.
