Hi, I鈥檓 Kaden Thaxton. Over the past couple of years, I鈥檝e traveled all over the world from trips around the United States to international destinations like Cuba, Southern Africa, Europe and many more places to come. I鈥檝e devoured hours of gear reviews, testing out countless types of travel goods myself to find the best products for every situation. I am the editor at Travel, etc., a publication for everything travel and travel-adjacent. I鈥檝e contributed to several other publications on Medium, and I run this column at Discover Walks Blog where you can find travel stories and tips from some of my favorite destinations.
