Who we are
Meet Kimberly
Kimberly R. Coffman is a travel writer, storyteller, and the founder of Kimberly Rae Travels — a platform built on the belief that travel is not just a destination, but a doorway to reinvention. A global executive and strategic advisor with more than 15 years of experience across aviation, financial services, and manufacturing, Kimberly is also a bestselling author and keynote speaker whose work has spanned social impact strategy, supplier responsibility, and organizational leadership at the highest levels.
She brings that same precision, curiosity, and systems thinking to every journey she takes and every story she tells. Having traveled by plane, train, and automobile across 28 countries and five continents, Kimberly writes with the authority of a seasoned global traveler and the honesty of someone who has navigated foreign cities alone, eaten extraordinary meals in places she almost didn’t walk into, and learned that the most interesting version of any destination is the one you find when you stop following someone else’s map.
Her work covers solo female travel, transformational journeys, cultural immersion, and the deeply personal experience of building a meaningful next chapter — one trip at a time.
Based between Atlanta, GA and Grand Rapids, MI.

My Travel Philosophy
“I believe travel is not just a destination. It is a calling. Whether you are celebrating a milestone, seeking restoration, exploring the world solo for the first time, or finally taking the trip you have been promising yourself for decades — I design experiences that meet you exactly where you are. Every itinerary I build reflects the same values I bring to everything I do: clarity, intention, and genuine care for the person in front of me.”
