Jenni and Steven Schluntz with their family
Who we are

A family of builders who refuse to stay home.

We’re Jenni and Steven Schluntz, parents to Maximus and baby Lucian, and between us we run four businesses from Portland, Oregon. Jenni spent 19 years in corporate, psychology degree in hand, quietly building this on the side to share her family’s travel experience. A layoff turned into the push to finally choose her own schedule. Today she runs Wed to Wanderlust, Wayfaring Consulting, and Wander Mom Digital Marketing. Steven runs his own ecommerce business. And somehow, we still get on planes.
