Destinations

These are some of our respective stops that we want to hit along the way.

We want to check out some of these hotspots as well as their surrounding areas, but we are always open to discussion. If there is somewhere else that you think we should check out — PLEASE let us know. We want to hear about it!

Learn to Travel <-> Travel to Learn

So, I love TED talks… They are one of my favorites sources to learn from, and I plan on going to at least one while over in Asia.

I stumbled across this video that took place at TEDxVancouver. I thought it was very pertinent to what we have going on and also very valuable information to anyone with the desire to travel. It is a bit lengthy, but well worth the watch!

Always remember — “where you are is where you are supposed to be!”

World Conquest

The figurative trigger has finally been pulled!

That in itself gives me a great sense of accomplishment, but by pulling that trigger I have opened up a whole other world of work for me. It’s not really ‘work’ at all, however the preparation for this trip is going to be no small feat.

There is so much ahead of me that I have to accomplish before I step foot on a plane to leave my hometown of Miami, FL. Some of those items include learning where to go and how to get there, getting back into shape just in case I get into a fight with a ninja, brushing back up on my photography skills so I can take some saweet pictures, and investing time into travel hacking my trip a bit.

Page a Day Keeps the Stress Away

I have been fortunate enough to travel in my life, but the journey we are about to embark on is going to be a game changer.

We are looking to travel like we have never traveled before, see what we have never seen before, do what we’ve never dreamed of doing before, and best of all, meet people we never thought we’d meet before.

I consider my life up until this point as a great introduction to my story — I can’t wait to start experiencing the body of it.

Self-Story

So, this one struck a chord with me for a few reasons.

  1. I think Seth Godin is a genius, and his writing / views on life are unbelievably pertinent to everyone no matter where they are in it.
  2. I uprooted myself from everything — job, organizations, family, and friends. I am inventing my next chapter this very second and each and everyday is another page.

Like with all ‘inventions’ I have no idea whether or not this will be successful, but I do know one thing — life will be nothing like it was before… ever again.

Y-O-U !

I thought about this for a while after I saw it — and thought it was actually a pretty interesting quote. Definitely more than the eye could see at first glance.

There is no one else in the entire world that has everything you have. That is 7.1 billion people! You signify 0.000000014% of the world population! That is awesome — such a small insignificant number can change the world, or the other 99.999999986% of the population!

Start in your everyday, go to work, make a change, make someone’s day better, make your organization better — When organizations work better, communities turn better — When communities are run better, geographies change, and you helped it do so!

Ignore the crowd because if you are just a part of it you will never surpass it! Be different, be yourself, be the change!

…Whoa…
