Team Bio: Ashlie

Owner of Bourn Adventure and Bourn Adventure Gear | 2012

Ashlie is a Registered Dietitian working out of Louisiana. She has a passion for animals, nutrition, travel, and a wide assortment of hobbies.

She is married to Baker and they have a rather large fur baby.  Keira, their 110 pound, five year old Akbash mix, spends most of her days training to be a door mat. She is multi talented and proficient in the following: laying in doorways, stepping on feet, knocking over small children, and sleeping. In her spare time she works as a Therapy

dog, visiting nursing homes, hospitals, hospice facilities, and other places where she can best utilize her skills.

Ashlie, along with Baker, started what is now known as Bourn Adventure in 2012. Before the rebrand to Bourn Adventure in 2017, the business was known as Bakes FJ, which focused on their adventures in the Toyota FJ Cruiser they owned. Their journey took them to all lower 48 states and parts of Canada. Unfortunately, while on a winter road trip they encountered a mighty snowstorm which led to the FJ Cruiser being totaled following an accident.

Over the years their website and their adventures have grown. They have even added a 2017 John Cooper Works MINI and a 2005 Lexus GX470 to their fleet of adventure vehicles. They make a good pair traveling together as Ashlie helps cover up the odd smells and weird noises made by Baker.

Ashlie loves to travel and experience new places. Here is what she had to say about it:

" There is so much to see in this world and you only have one life, so YOLO! We  began by exploring the US, but have begun making plans to start traveling overseas. We have currently explored all of the lower 48 states twice and hope to make it a third time soon.  We created a business, Bourn Adventure, to document our travels, inspire others, and sell a few stickers and patches in the process. "

One of her passions is food. What started out as a love hate relationship has turned into a love affair. Here is what she had to say about nutrition:

" I grew up confused about what was healthy and ended up getting a degree in Dietetics to better understand the confusing world of nutrition. It was only after I graduated that I started diving into original research studies and uncovered the truth to a long, healthy life. And thus, Living Healthy was born! "

Ashlie has a long list of hobbies, which include:

• Piano
• Knitting
• Crochet
• Sketching
• Gaming (WoW, Oblivion, ect)

• Traveling
• Cooking
• Being a nerd
• Motorcycling
• ​Playing Magic the Gathering

Her goals are simple. She wants to share her adventures, along with sharing valuable health information that can help prevent cancer, potentially reverse heart disease, and increase a healthy life, tips from hobbies, and to learn from others. She hopes to bring new insights, knowledge, and perspectives with every post.
