After serving six years in the Air Force, Bri was medically separated from the military, which completely shifted the path she had planned for her life. Like a lot of veterans, she suddenly found herself feeling lost, disconnected, and without the sense of purpose and community that the military had given her.
Bri, the founder of The Roaming Vet, didn’t start this community as a business idea. She started it because she needed it herself.
She turned to the outdoors and travel as a way to heal and reconnect with herself. While sharing her journey online, she realized something important: she wasn’t the only one feeling this way. There were thousands of other veterans and service members craving connection, adventure, and a community that truly understood their experiences.
So she created The Roaming Vet- a space where veterans, service members, and their families can find each other, explore the outdoors, and build meaningful connections around shared experiences.
At its core, The Roaming Vet exists to help people rediscover purpose, find community again, and realize they’re not alone- on or off the road.
It’s a return of sorts. To self, to stillness, to something steady beneath it all.
After service, things don’t always fall neatly into place. Purpose feels distant. Connection harder to come by. The pace of it all unfamiliar.
So we go. Into the mountains, across open land, bodies of water, toward something honest. And along the way, we find others doing the same.
At The Roaming Vet, our mission is to create meaningful connections and empower veterans through travel, community, and shared experiences.
Rooted in the belief that no one should navigate life after service alone, we bring people together to explore, heal, and rediscover purpose beyond the uniform.
Our mission is to create community-focused, outdoor-centric travel opportunities for every traveler, with local events, bucket-list trips, exclusive discounts through veteran partnerships, and a goal of fostering passion and healing beyond service.
At The Roaming Vet, we envision a world where every service member, veteran, and dependent traveler finds community and healing through outdoor adventures. By fostering connections through local and global events, and partnering with veteran-owned and military-affiliated organizations, we strive to make travel accessible and meaningful for all, inspiring a lifelong passion for exploration and well-being beyond their military commitment.

“Brianna was amazing. Her energy and overall care for us was special. She is an incredible human and I can’t wait to do another trip with her. The Trova trip was fantastic! Fernando and Walter were incredibly intelligent and fun to be around. They felt like part of the group and made us feel welcome in their home country.”
