Welcome to the Atlanta & Beyond Blog!
Hi! I’m Kelly, the voice behind Atlanta & Beyond. I’m here to share the best things to do, see, and eat in the Atlanta metro area and beyond! I am an Atlanta resident, an architect and a mom. Everything on this site is based on my experiences with my family. We’ve had so much fun exploring Atlanta & Beyond – whether you live in Atlanta or are visiting Atlanta I want you to do the same!
