What’s the Footbreaks story?

Our Story

Hi, I’m Kyle, the creator of Footbreaks.

After spending a decade in the group travel industry—leading unforgettable trips, working behind the scenes in operations, and helping people plan their next adventure—I decided to take a leap of faith and build something of my own.

Footbreaks was born out of my own incredible experience walking the Camino de Santiago. There’s something profoundly powerful about moving from one place to another, embracing a slower pace, and sharing the journey with like-minded people. The Camino taught me that travel isn’t just about seeing new places—it’s about connection, self-discovery, and stepping into something bigger than yourself. I wanted to bring that same spirit to life in a way that feels accessible and inspiring, right here in San Diego.

So I created Footbreaks—a travel community built for walkers, explorers, and anyone searching for their next step. Whether you’re navigating a life transition, craving real connections, or simply looking to explore more of San Diego, you’re in the right place.
