Christina Heyniger created Off the Radar to bring passionate, independent travelers reliable information about smaller, owner-operated companies around the world – those who provide guests with a genuine, personal experience; who believe in sustainable, environmentally sensitive travel; and who believe in incorporating the local people and traditions of the places where they operate. 

Applying the famous "six degrees of separation" principle, every business appearing in this column has either been personally experienced by our writers and editors, or recommended by a trusted associate who shares a similar passion for ”responsible” entrepreneurs.

Off the Radar maintains high editorial standards of unbiased reporting - companies do not pay to be featured in our newsletters; all recommendations are based on merit.

Natasha Martin - Consultant and travel writer Natasha Martin is Off the Radar's monthly features editor and manages Off the Radar's Facebook page.

Paige Stringer - Consultant and travel writer Paige Stringer provides strategic direction to the OTR team, manages the marketing and sales efforts, and frequently contributes her own written work.
