Welcome to Joy Evoked, where we strive to find and experience moments of pure joy, then share it with you. We’ve all felt it—that exhilarating rush of happiness and excitement that washes away stress and helps you truly appreciate where you are, who you’re with, and what you’re doing.
Here, we share personal stories and detailed information from our travels and adventures, focusing on the experiences that have brought us those invaluable moments. Sometimes we travel far and wide, sometimes we find those moments on a otherwise ordinary Thursday in our own hometown. We’re passionate about helping you discover and enjoy the beautiful places wherever you choose to find them. If you can disconnect from the daily grind and be present in the now.
Whether you’re an experienced globetrotter or planning your very first trip, you’ll find a variety of helpful resources on our site. We offer travel tips, insights into local food, and guides to various destinations we’ve explored. You’ll also find links to our Store, where you can grab merchandise inspired by our world travels—perfect for a gift or a memento for yourself. If you want to take a trip but just don’t know how to go about planning it, check our Services page for information on our professional trip planning offerings. Our motto is “Dream big, plan smart, explore often,” and we’re here to help you do the same.
We hope our stories inspire you to seek out and create more moments of joy in your own life.
