Meet Andrea Kuuipo

Hi. It’s me, Andrea Kuuipo.

I was born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska. I live, work, play, and harvest on the traditional homelands of the Dena’ina people.

I started Andrea Kuuipo Abroad a few months into my year-long backpacking adventure around South America in 2016 as a way to share stories with my friends and family. But, I only wrote a few things back then and decided to take it more seriously in 2020.

In the last four years, I’ve shared my adventures and other helpful posts with my best tips and advice to make it easier for you to get outside and plan your next adventure.

Most of my expertise is around Alaska, as it’s the place I grew up. I’ve also lived in a few other places around the world, like Hawaii, Portugal, and Wales, and I’ve traveled to more than 40 countries across 5 continents, and that travel list continues to grow!

5 Fun Facts About Me

  1. Kuuipo is my middle name. It means “sweetheart” in Hawaiian.
  2. I am a dual citizen and I have an American and Irish passport.
  3. I’ve lived in 3 countries: The United States (Alaska and Hawaii), Portugal, and Wales.
  4. I adopted a penguin colony in Antarctica.
  5. I self-published two hiking books.
