Playground Earth™ started in April of 2001 as a personal web site dedicated to showcasing articles and reviews of the best destinations to play in the world. I felt that my husband and I had plenty of adventures and secret places to share with our friends.

Adding soft adventures to our trips was a very enriching way of connecting with nature and our planet. Through the years the strongest memories that we have from each trip are the memories of our outdoor activities. Hiking, river rafting, snowboarding, scuba diving, hot air ballooning, soring, etc. We often talk about how we live on an amazing playground and how much we value our time dedicated to exploring new locations while living a healthy and fulfilling life full of love, joy and adventure.

Looking over the cliffs on the Napali Coast after a 5 hour hike makes you realize the immensity of our world. It also helps to put work in perspective. Beauty of that magnitude encourages our spirits and invites reflection on the truly valuable things in life; health, family, friends, love and nature.

Our reflections often include the topic of work, the amount of time we spend at our jobs, and how important is to find balance in life. These ideas became the foundation for Playground Earth. To complete the connection between work and play I decided to bring my business development, e-commerce and personal travel experiences together to build Playground Earth into specilized verticlas dedicated to promoting outdorports sports.

Since 2001 the PGE team has researched the travel industry in depth, established connections with tourism officials from various countries and partnered with World Choice Travel, a division of Travelocity, to bring you the best travel articles, reviews and vacation packages to the best destinations in the world.
