How Did We Get Here?

In November of 2023, Jeremy and I were talking about what would come next in life. He came to the realization that his most recent job was not a fit for him and he needed to get out. A new job? In a new city? The response we both had was, “Meh. Ok. I guess.” Jeremy was burnt out. He needed something to recharge him personally that would also help him regain his passion professionally. We talked about dreams and what we REALLY wanted, which all led to the question — What if we sold the house and traveled for a year or so? We love traveling and experiencing new places and cultures. It was a flight of fancy, but the more we talked about it, we both had come to the same realization — there is nothing telling us, “No.” And, why would we wait to do something like this? So, we set a plan in motion.

Long story short, we are taking a sabbatical for at least a year to travel the world. We realized that each experience, each move we made, our passion for people, and our shared love of travel was leading us to this next stage in our life. Neither of us see this as just an extended vacation. We both crave intellectual stimulation and while we would love to spend the next year sitting on a beach drinking rosé, it is not who we are at the end of the day. That being said, there will be days of sitting on a beach drinking rosé.

That’s where this space comes into play. We plan to put our passion and creativity into something that is uniquely us. Where to Next? is a space we can share our experience while learning new skills and hopefully inspire others to take a travel sabbatical too.

We hope you share our excitement through this journey.

Cheers to Where to Next?! 🥂
