Catherine Parker

Catherine Parker has a passion for travel with only one state left in her quest of seeing all 50. As a former flight attendant with one of the largest airlines, she’s landed in nearly every North American airport at least once. Since clipping her professional wings after 9/11, Catherine combines her love of the open road with visiting national parks, historic sites and cultural icons. Logging over 55,000 miles behind the wheel, Catherine has explored 40 of the 60 national parks so far. Loaded an over-packed SUV, she’s driven through the lower 48 and six Canadian provinces with her three kids.
