Travel, Content & Local Business Partnerships
Looking to reach travelers who are always looking for their next adventure? Let’s create something worth talking about.
Dates in the States is a travel brand created by Crystal Statskey-Biichle and her husband, Shane. Together, we’ve traveled to 49 U.S. states and love discovering unique destinations, experiences, food, outdoor adventures, and places worth adding to an itinerary.
