About Travel Small Towns (Formerly My Town Travels)
The Travel Small Towns Podcast (formerly The My Town Travels Podcast) began as a beautiful and messy work in progress. It all started in late 2017 When host Kristy Burns was traveling with her husband Geoff and had an idea. (Click Here for Story) Working on this idea part-time as a blog until it became a reality as a platform in 2020 took a lot of trial and error, passion, drive, and commitment. Finally, they had a platform that not only could be shared with people to visit the places they loved but also for the towns themselves to utilize, which had always been their dream and intention. Their love of small towns and, more importantly, the people who live in and travel to small towns drive this show’s content.
