Meet Sherry
I’m Sherry McKeown, a Canadian luxury travel content creator, cruise expert, author, and founder of Sherry On Shore, where travel becomes more than a destination. It becomes a catalyst for perspective, connection, and reinvention.
With experience across all seven continents and 94 countries, I create thoughtful travel and lifestyle stories through photography and storytelling, collaborating with brands, founders, and tourism boards who value authenticity and depth. Sherry On Shore also invites women 50+ to embrace solo travel and new chapters with curiosity, confidence, and intention.
For women craving something beautiful, bold, and soul-nourishing, without having to DIY the details.
For brands, tourism boards, and destinations seeking elevated travel storytelling that shapes perception, builds trust, and brings place to life through a thoughtful, experienced lens.
For events, podcasts, summits, and retreats looking for heart-led storytelling with a playful edge and a credible voice in midlife reinvention.

Her chapter explores reinvention, identity shifts, and the courage it takes to chart a new course, themes that sit at the heart of Sherry On Shore. Unreserved is honest, layered, and deeply human, reflecting the pivots, quiet wins, and bold leaps that shape who we become.
This book is for anyone standing at the edge of change, wondering if they’re ready for what’s next.
You are. You always were.
Unreserved is a reminder that your story matters, and that everything changes when you choose to own it.

It was one of those snowy December days—the kind where you shovel once, then again, then again. I was bundled up, frozen to my bones, and silently muttering things I can’t print here.
