Talley Your Adventure – The Blog

Adventure Awaits!

At Talley Your Adventure, we don’t just plan luxury and culturally rich travel experiences—we live and breathe them. Our blog, travelingtalleys.blog, is where we share the real stories behind our adventures: kayaking alongside glaciers in Alaska, exploring temples in Japan, chasing waterfalls in Iceland, and wandering through storybook towns in Germany. If it’s unforgettable, chances are we’ve done it—or we’re planning it next.

Nicolette brings deep experience in travel and heritage. With a Master’s in Public History, she’s worked as a Supervisory Park Ranger, Revenue Manager, and Program Analyst across multiple national parks for over a decade. Her career has taken her from managing interpretive boat tours in Alaska’s wild backcountry to overseeing large-scale visitor service projects with million-dollar budgets. And yes—she’s also a licensed 100-Ton Inland Master Boat Captain who’s led cultural and ecological tours from riverboats to remote beaches.

Clinton’s travel roots run just as deep. He’s worked in logistics and operations for the National Park Service and was a key member of the hospitality team aboard National Geographic Lindblad Expeditions. From managing guest services on remote international voyages to coordinating facility software systems stateside, he knows what it takes to deliver seamless, high-end travel experiences—even in the most unpredictable places.

Together, we created Talley Your Adventure to bring our experience, passion, and attention to detail to your travel planning. Whether it’s a fully curated group trip or a personalized vacation built just for you, we combine expert-level service with insider know-how—so you can focus on the magic of the journey.

I love old photos like the one above. They seem to show so much detail with only small amounts of color. Plus, a picture of a baseball team from 1910 can’t get much better! This photo is over 100 years old! It’s amazing to be around such old history (yeah yeah, there is older history out there, don’t need to tell me twice!) and be able to record and preserve it for years to come.

I have happily finished recording the entire Rockefeller DVD collection to a MP4 file for you internet enthusiasts to view. I also finished the Facebook backlog up to the end of May. You lucky intern next year can complete what happens from then on!

From here, I have a few more tasks on my plate. I will be learning how to use ArchiveGrid and Ark-Cat, as well as digitizing the Public History Seminars. I am wrapping up the Oral History 1930 interviews. I have them recorded, but some of them were recorded on a different Hz so I need to slow them down so they don’t sound like chipmunks! I also need to finish the transcripts so that you can read what they are saying if you don’t understand! I also need to dive head first into my thesis project (hint: Carl Bailey?!) I’m super stoked to have finished such a large portion of my tasks during this internship and will be able to go back and take my time (hopefully) looking through the Carl Bailey Collection as a whole.

So, about 4 more weeks left and I will be looking to start my fall semester. Keep your eyes here for updates!
