Jordan Ellis

Jordan Ellis covers the United States and Canada for Always Packed, with a special brief for Black heritage travel: the sites, cities, festivals, and family-run businesses that carry the culture. His road-trip guides are built the way good trips actually happen, with honest drive times, the right overnight towns, and food stops treated as destinations in their own right. Jordan's conviction is that the most important travel writing in America right now is about who gets to feel at home on its roads. This profile is an Always Packed editorial desk, a named collection of editors and researchers publishing under a shared beat and voice.
