Welcome to CranberryCarrie and Galen’s adventures in life.
Inspired Travel. Intentional Living. Shared Adventure.

Hi, I am CranberryCarrie.  I grew up in Warrens, Wisconsin on my family’s cranberry marsh.  In 2003 my life was forever changed when I met Galen, the love of my life.  Back in 2004 my Aunt Becky let Galen borrow her BMW 650 motorcycle for the afternoon and that is all it took to get him hooked on adventure riding. For over 10 years we have enjoyed riding 2up first on our BMW1150GS and now on our 1200GSA.  The adventures we have taken have not only made our relationship stronger but have allowed us to meet some pretty amazing people along the way.  Life has a way of getting busy and complicated.  I hope to inspire you to enrich your relationship through adventure travel and save money through intentional living.  Thanks for joining me on this journey. Let’s get started!

I invite you to join me as I share highlights from our adventure rides on motorcycles and snowmobiles.  I will also share reviews on products we love.  I will share tips on how to save money and talk about our journey of becoming debt free.  Some days I will just talk about life.  Make sure you sign up using your email address to get new posts delivered right to your inbox.

I want to hear from you!  I would love to have you leave a comment below.  Your input is appreciated and encouraged.

So why CranberryCarrie?!?

Since the 9th grade I had dreamed of starting a cranberry themed gift shop to educate more people about my family’s industry.  (I realize now how corny that probably sounded). That being said with the help of my family and friends I owned and operated a cranberry themed specialty store located in Wisconsin Dells, WI for 10 years. The name of the shop was Cranberry Connections.  I was overjoyed to have accomplished this goal at such a young age but after a few years realized that I didn’t want to be a store owner the rest of my life.  So now what?  I hadn’t set any goals beyond having successful gift shop.  What I have come to realize is that I love to connect with people.  I love helping someone live life to the fullest because at the same time it changes my life for the better and that is pretty awesome!  To this day people around town call me CranberryCarrie.
