About Rob Taylor
Rob Taylor is the founder of 2TravelDads, the original LGBT Family Travel blog. Focusing on ecotourism and education, 2TravelDads inspires LGBT families (and traditional families also) to go beyond their usual getaways and use travel to learn about and be part of a bigger world. "Traveling the globe and giving the kids a broad worldview." In addition to 2TravelDads, Rob is the creator of PaddleYourState.com, MyAlohaTrip.com and several other trusted travel resources. Having lived all around the USA, responsible travel focusing on education as a source of adventure is at the core of his work. Maine, Alaska, Hawaii and the Florida Keys are all such special destinations that focusing on sustainable and educational tourism in these places is the goal of most of Rob's work. And then of course exploring the wilderness and cities with his kids in tow is always a driving force in his writing.
