OUR STORY

Nine years ago, my girlfriend, (who later became my fiance, and now wife) and I made a commitment to one another. Now this wasn’t your everyday I’m-gonna-love-you-forever-and-ever-amen-type deal, rather it was a promise that we’d make it a priority to travel someplace new at least once a year. And if we were feeling lucky, maybe two.

Oh and by someplace new, we meant specifically another country. Call us loco, but there’s just something truly special about leaving your home country, going out to explore the unknown and appreciating all that you’ve left behind, even if it’s just temporary. No?

I’m proud to say that we’ve lived up to that personal goal, even the year when we made what some would dub the most stupid decision on planet Earth by quitting our jobs, moving up North, and relying completely on the money we saved throughout college. Why? Because we have our priorities in order. Yeah, I said it.

WHERE THE HECK HAVE YOU BEEN?

So throughout that course of time we’ve managed to set foot in:

• Ecuador
• Trinidad & Tobago
• Canada
• Mexico
• Bahamas
• Ghana
• Spain
• Italy
• Jamaica
• Nicaragua
• France
• Morocco
• Costa Rica
• Togo
• England
• China
• Thailand
• Turkey
• Denmark
• Switzerland

And no, we don’t plan on stopping anytime soon!

It hasn’t been easy by any stretch of the imagination, as we’ve had to cut corners here and there every once in awhile, but I’m a firm believer that you can get whatever you want out of life, just so long as your put in the WORK for it. And that, we’ve most certainly done.

For those that are wondering, we did promise to love each other until the end of time. But, this was after our we made our travel promises to one another.

Because once again, priorities first, right? If only others had it together the way we do! Geez! =)
