North Carolina's Adventurous Five!

Who We Are:

Welcome to our world of North Carolina adventures! We’re the Doirons: Joel, Rebekah, Luke, Lilly, and little Levi. A family of five with a shared love for the Tar Heel State, each of us adds a unique flavor to our travels.

The Pioneers

Joel:

The Captain of our ship! Joel leads our explorations with a mix of wisdom and humor. He’s the map-reader, the itinerary planner, and our go-to guy for all things outdoors. Whether it’s a hike through the Blue Ridge Mountains or a stroll along the Outer Banks, Joel’s adventurous spirit keeps us moving forward.

Rebekah:

The Heart and Soul of our family. Rebekah’s warm spirit and keen eye for the hidden gems of North Carolina make every trip special. She’s the one who finds those cozy, off-the-beaten-path spots, from charming bookstores in Asheville to quaint cafes in Wilmington.

The Trailblazers

Luke

Our eldest and the family historian. Luke’s passion for North Carolina’s rich history brings depth to our travels. Whether it’s a visit to the historic Roanoke Island or exploring the legacy of the Wright Brothers, Luke ensures we leave with a story to tell.

Lilly

The artist in our midst. Lilly captures the beauty of North Carolina through her sketches and photographs. Her perspective often leads us to see things in a new light, be it the vibrant street art of Charlotte or the serene sunsets at Cape Hatteras.

Levi

The youngest and our bundle of energy. Levi’s enthusiasm is infectious! He’s always eager for the next adventure, whether it’s kayaking in the Great Smoky Mountains or searching for seashells on Topsail Island. Levi reminds us that every journey is about joy and discovery.
