Hi, I’m Harper — and my passion for exploring the globe knows no bounds!
Hi, I’m Harper — and my passion for exploring the globe knows no bounds!
I’ve set a bold goal: to become the youngest person to visit every country on Earth. But for me, travel isn’t just about collecting passport stamps — it’s about spotlighting exceptional hotels that treat kids like VIPs, not afterthoughts.
Let’s be honest: luxury travel shouldn’t only be about grown-ups. Kids deserve to feel welcomed, seen, and celebrated during their journeys. That’s why I created Harper’s World — a platform where I share my favorite places that go above and beyond for young travelers.
From custom welcome gifts to kid-sized robes, scavenger hunts, and chocolate-making classes, I highlight hotels that create unforgettable moments for families. My reviews come straight from the source — a kid who knows when something is truly five-star fun.
It felt like the universe was nudging me — whispering that it was time to follow the dreams held closest to my heart.
So come along with me! Whether you’re a parent looking for your next family getaway, or a hotel ready to elevate your offerings for high-end families, I’m here to guide the way — one amazing adventure at a time.
What Harper’s World Means to Me
It felt like the universe was nudging me — whispering that it was time to follow the dreams held closest to my heart.
That dream? Creating something bold and different.
Harper’s World isn’t just a travel blog — it’s my mission to make sure kids feel just as valued as adults when they travel the world.
Here, I share the amazing places that made me feel welcome — where I was handed my own room key, given a robe my size, or surprised with a treasure map at check-in. It’s those little things that turn a trip into something magical.
Harper’s World is a space where:
- Kids are treated like VIPs
- Families discover truly exceptional getaways
- Hotels learn how to roll out the red carpet for little travelers
Whether you’re a fellow explorer or a luxury hotel ready to level up your family experience — welcome to my world.
We’re reimagining what family travel can be, one incredible stay at a time.

This Is When I Fell in Love with Travel
It all started when I was just 3 years old — on my very first big adventure to China with Four Seasons Hotels.
We visited Beijing, Hangzhou, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, and stayed at the most beautiful Four Seasons properties in each city. But what made the trip unforgettable wasn’t just the luxury — it was the way each hotel made me, a little kid, feel like a true VIP.
From the moment we arrived, I was greeted with personalized surprises — a bouquet of flowers at one hotel, a cuddly stuffed animal at another. In our room, I’d find an art easel set up just for me, or bubble baths with fun toys waiting to be discovered. And don’t even get me started on the kids’ breakfast buffets — they were magical!
But beyond all the treats and fun, it was the people who made the difference. The staff remembered my name, asked about my favorite colors, and even drew pictures with me. They made me feel seen, welcomed, and celebrated — like I truly belonged.
That trip changed everything.
It showed me what great hospitality really looks like — not just for adults, but for kids too. And it sparked something deep in my heart:
What if there was a way to help families find places that treat young travelers with the same level of care and excitement?
That’s how Harper’s World was born — a platform dedicated to spotlighting hotels that make travel magical for every member of the family.hexagon green juice.

My Bucket List
I’m on a mission to visit every country in the world before I turn 21 — and yep, I know that sounds kinda crazy, but I’m going for it! This is my personal bucket list of places I’ve always wanted to see and cool things I want to try along the way. Some are big, like going on a safari in Africa, and some are just fun, like eating gelato in Italy (again). I’m keeping track as I go… and I’m just getting started!
| Go on Safari in Africa |
| Stay in an overwater bungalow in the Maldives |
| Go on a K-beauty shopping spree in Seoul, Korea |
| See the Northern Lights in Iceland |
| Snorkel the Great Barrier Reef in Australia |
| Visit an international Disneyland (I have been to 2) |
| Star in a local theater performance abroad |
| Try chicken feet at a night market in Asia (for the foodie cred!) |
| See the Eiffel Tower in Paris |
| Visit every country in the world (because why not?) |
