To recharge, Rick plays piano, relaxes at his family cabin in the Cascade Mountains, and spends time with his son Andy, daughter Jackie, and his new grandson...baby Atlas.
When not on the road, Rick is active in his church and with advocacy groups focused on economic and social justice, drug policy reform, and ending hunger.
He does all of this with the help of more than 100 well-traveled staff members at Rick Steves\' Europe in Edmonds, WA (near Seattle).
Rick produces a best-selling guidebook series, a public television series, and a public radio show, and organizes small-group tours that take over 30,000 travelers to Europe annually.
His mission: to empower Americans to have European trips that are fun, affordable, and culturally broadening.
