I’ve always considered myself a spiritual person, but never really appreciated how universally connected we all are in our hearts and souls until my first trip to India in 2010. It was one of those rare and wonderful once-in-a-lifetime journeys that taught me that travel can truly transform a life. I know, because this trip transformed my life. 

It is the little things that make a big difference and create indelible memories we can recount forever.  Travel is the best education we can give our children and ourselves.

I was intentionally trying and thoroughly enjoying all of the delicious food. The smells, the sounds, and the energy were invigorating.  My adventures were abundant, with each of them teaching me an incredible amount about myself and about the world. 

Ten years ago when I was high in the Andes at over 13,000 feet in the small village of Umasbamba Peru,  I was inspired by a young man who had learned from a local NGO how to make efficient, smokeless ovens which heated the home an extra 20 degrees and provided warm water as well.

TRANSFORMATIONAL TRAVEL had a big impact on me before I had any idea that TT was a thing. After growing up in a big city, and attending university with the goal of becoming a lawyer, my life took an unexpected turn.
