We are two independent small content creators. While our home is in Texas, we've lived in many different places months at a time researching vacations. To us, our independence is paramount! Since 1999 we've remained independent content creators and aren't associated (and never were!) with any other companies, channels, networks or marketing groups. We do not employ any freelance writers or editors. Click here to find our one and only Youtube channel @VacationIdea. We are not associated with any other YouTube channels, networks or marketing companies (especially those using the terms "vacation ideas", "vacation idea", "dream travel", "dream vacation", etc). We've received many awards and media mentions for our work on VacationIdea.com, including Forbes Best of the Web, abc6 Morning Show, UMich, 7News, WA State Department, and many others.
