Our Story

A note from Untethered Travel Co.'s founder Janalee:


My husband and I knew that we wanted travel to be an important part of raising our family. We started out with short, local trips. As our businesses grew and our commitments became more virtual, we traveled more often. We got a taste of "the untethered life" and we haven't wanted to look back. 


To be untethered does not mean that you aren't grounded in any way, it means that you get to choose your path in life. That looks different for everyone, but for us it means that we mold our life around our desire for freedom and exploration.


A few years ago, we decided it was time to start escaping Fort Wayne's winters for a few months at a time. I had almost as much fun planning every detail of our travels as I did actually traveling the world!


Some of the places we have traveled as a family include:

  • Costa Rica
  • Hawaii
  • Australia
  • Thailand
  • Vietnam
  • Dubai
  • Italy
  • Iceland
  • Canada
  • Indonesia
  • Malaysia
  • Japan
  • Greece
  • Egypt
  • Mexico
  • Dominican Republic


I founded Untethered Travel Co. to blend my love for travel with my love for helping others become "untethered" from whatever is keeping them from living the life of their dreams. I have helped dozens of couples and families get on vacation and I would love to be your go-to travel advisor for your next vacation.
