How It Began

WhereNext Travel grew from the personal journeys of its founders, Angelika Köhler and Gregg Bleakney.

Angelika left Germany, planning to spend a year in Latin America. In Colombia, she found a new home, mastered salsa, and built a family.

Gregg moved from a career in track and field to tech, then set off on an 18,500-mile solo bicycle ride from Alaska to Argentina.

Both experienced moments that changed everything. Neither returned “home.”

What they found—on very different paths—was the same truth: the best journeys make us laugh until our stomachs hurt, connect us with people and places we never expected, bring quiet in wild places, and invite us to grow through challenge.

Today, WhereNext designs travel that invites guests to share experiences that might shift how they see the world, and return home (if they choose to) a little different than when they left.

Just like the trips that rewrote the story of Angelika and Gregg.

Our Values

Remember When Travel Was Just… Fun?

In a world where travel is often framed as a moral mission or soul-searching odyssey, we never forget the joy of travel. The best journeys often begin with nothing more than curiosity, laughter, and a little bit of play.

How We Think About Fun

Community-First Travel, It’s Personal

When we first launched WhereNext Travel, we believed hiring “local” was enough.

But after employing teams in Colombia and Peru, we saw the truth: most tourism workers still operate informally, without contracts, benefits, or job security.

Community-first, for us, means working with suppliers and people creating real economic opportunity, for guides, chefs, hoteliers, because without that, sustainable travel isn’t real. It’s just a sales pitch.
