TRAVEL STORIES

Each of us has a different origin story. Some develop a passion for travel later in their adult lives. Those later teenage years and early twenties might provide opportunity for those fortunate enough. Others might discover it due to their occupation. White collar, blue collar, in the end it’s all the same. For us, this passion began at a young age during family vacations and road trips. Throughout college and life after, we have always had a habit of wanting to get the most out of every minute of free time. The result? Years of wandering areas unknown (to us) of the USA and a few international holidays. It is important to always be grateful for your opportunities to see unknown places throughout our world – never take for granted how fortunate you might be.
