Meet JoAnn Hill
Hi, I'm JoAnn Hill, a travel writer, author, and lifelong explorer.
I've traveled to all 50 states and more than 60 countries in search of hidden gems, authentic experiences, and unforgettable stories.
Through my books, travel writing, and personalized trip planning, I help travelers explore the world with curiosity, confidence, and adventure.
50 States • 60+ Countries • 4 Travel Books
I am the author of Secret Washington, DC, Unique Eats & Eateries of Washington, DC, and DC Scavenger.
My fourth book, Secret Florida, co-authored with Alexia Gonzalez, will be released September 2026.
My Journey as an Author
When I'm not traveling, you'll often find me studying Italian, teaching yoga, taking long walks along the St. Petersburg waterfront with a great audiobook in my ears, or dreaming up my next travel and culinary adventure with my husband, T.
I believe travel isn't just about seeing new places — it's about gaining new perspectives, creating meaningful connections, and discovering parts of ourselves along the way.
