I was 33 years old the first time I ever rode on an airplane. It was a business trip and I was grateful for the opportunity. That trip helped me realize there was SO much that I had never seen or experienced. I was born and raised in a small town and had done some traveling to the mountains and the beach. I had visited a few different states that were in driving distance. I had never really left my region much less my country.
That trip made me want to travel more!
As of 2026, I have visited 26 out of 50 US States and 15 different countries! I am constantly reminded there’s so much more to see and do!
Travel teaches us so much! It’s an opportunity to learn about other places and cultures. It’s a great to see what we have in common with other people, places and cultures and to see the different ways we approach things.
One thing that I am constantly reminded of is how important connection is. I see it in the way our coffee, wine, honey, and so many other products are influenced by where they are grown and what is grown around them. The Redwoods and Aspens remind us of this connection in the way they share a root system and resources. We are reminded of it in the way our traditions are passed down from one generation to another… or how detrimental it can be when they are not.
So, please stay connected with us as we travel, enjoy adventures, connect with the people and places around us, and learn valuable lessons.
