Our company name, Nelson Krieg Travel
was inspired by the wonderful story we share and our family names. We both grew up in southeastern Montana.
We went to the same high school and graduated in the same class. Eric went to Utah for college and Carri stayed in Billings for her undergraduate degree. Carri then went to Colorado for a master’s degree and Eric stayed in Utah to start a family.
Life was good, but both experienced a tragedy that was hard to overcome. Eric lost his wife to cancer and Carri lost her husband to ALS. Their strength and passion for life persevered.
Fast forward a few years to our 30-year high school reunion. After speaking to each other and catching up, they again went their separate ways. Carri went to back to Texas and Eric back to Utah.
Six months passed and Eric moved to Texas for work and started a new chapter in life. A few months later after enjoying each other’s friendship and spending time together we began dating. The rest is a fairy tale and we were married in 2018 to start a new chapter in life, love and travel.
