About Ashlyn

After completing two degrees (B.A, B.Ed.), Ashlyn traded the traditional career path for a solo ticket around the world — setting off on what was originally meant to be a five-year journey. Since then, she has travelled to nearly 70 countries across 7 continents, building a career around authentic storytelling, outdoor adventure, and cultural exploration.

Ashlyn is a co-author of Lonely Planet’s Best Bike Rides Canada, an internationally recognized travel guide showcasing some of the country’s most unforgettable biking adventures.

Her work has appeared in publications, campaigns, and media projects across Canada and internationally, with a focus on experiential travel, outdoor adventure, road trips, and human-interest storytelling.

How it Became a Career

In 2015, Ashlyn became the official travel blogger and online personality for the Government of Saskatchewan’s “Saskatchewanderer” program, documenting the province through film, photography, writing, and social media. Since then, she has continued to work as a freelance digital media creator and on-camera host, partnering with tourism boards, brands, and organizations to create compelling visual and written content.

Awards + Recognition

Her work and storytelling have earned numerous recognitions, including induction as a Tourism Builder by Hospitality Saskatchewan, multiple awards for her writing and photos from the Travel Media Association of Canada, the Sask Parks and Recreation Leadership Excellence Award, CBC Saskatchewan’s Future 40, Saskatchewan Tourism Travel Media Award, and a YWCA Women of Distinction nomination. Her website was also named Best Saskatchewan Blog by SaskNOW.

Whether she’s paddling northern rivers, hiking in the Rockies, road-tripping across Canada, or exploring far-flung corners of the world, Ashlyn is passionate about inspiring others to embrace adventure — especially through accessible, experience-driven travel.

  1. Ashlyn, you are a legend!

    It was so much fun meeting and chatting with you at Shoetrings backpackers in Victoria Falls. I’ve since found a few cool free internet places. Hope you managed to get a taxi without much trouble.

    I emailed you some of the pics we took.

    I’m also intending to link to your website from my backpackers website for fun.

    Wishing you every success with your new and amazing venture in promoting the province in Canada. 🙂 Would be cool to see the website you promote, before and after
