Hi everyone. I’m Stephanie Harff, and I’m a marketing executive living in Tampa, FL, with my husband, Brian, and my two sons, Jackson and Cameron.

Like a lot of working mothers, I have a busy scheduled filled with a lot of responsibility. I love my family more than anything, and I feel grateful to have an interesting, fulfilling career that allows me create amazing opportunities for my children.

Of course, all that responsibility can leave me feeling depleted. Over the years, I’ve learned that the best way to replenish my energy is to engage in activities that make me feel excited about life. Learning new things, engaging in creative pursuits, enjoying great experiences and spending time with loved ones—these are the things that restore me.

Traveling with my family offers a way for me to combine all these elements. When we explore new places, we learn about the world around us, and in turn, we grow as people. Of course, vacation can’t last forever, but the benefits of travel don’t have to end when we return home. We can bring those wonderful experiences home with us, and incorporate them into our everyday lives.

I created The World at Home for people who love to travel, and who are interested in exploring ways in which they can incorporate their favorite travel experiences into their everyday lives. The blog features classic city guides, as well as my thoughts on how travel can influence the way you decorate, the way you entertain, the way you dress, and so much more. 

I hope you find my thoughts and recommendations helpful, but more than that, I hope you are inspired to think of ways in which you can bring your travels home with you, so that you can continue to reap the benefits of travel long after vacation ends.

Enjoy!

Stephanie
