This guy just gave up his job. Now granted, he was just a couple years out of college, but decided to just travel around the world. And what I realized was that if you have a desire for something, I truly believe if you have this desire in your heart, maybe you want to travel, maybe you want to do something else, whatever it is, you’re supposed to do it. And I may be in a position where I am about to turn 46. And I have a high school kid and you know, a family and a home and I can’t just take off and live traveling all over the place. But I can start to move in that direction. And I can start to implement more adventure and travel into my life. And I have a plan. I’ve hatched a plan since I got off this interview for next summer to take six weeks with my whole family and get our travel on. So I’m I already started coming up with the house and the reasons why it wouldn’t work. And I’m totally avoiding those. I’m not even going to look at them. And I’m just noticing that they come into my mind. And I’m saying Hi, I see you. You don’t get to drive this bus. And I’m just gonna put faith in the universe that if I stay focused, that that’s what I want, it will all work out. I don’t have to worry about the house. I just have to worry about the end result that I desire. So I’m anxious to see if this interview inspires you. And if it does, be sure to jump into our Facebook community group.

And a couple years back in 2015, I kind of quit the nine to nine to five job, the apartment in a city center type of wife and I went traveling for six months, I went to South America, North America, Fiji, Australia, and Southeast Asia. And that’s, that’s when I pretty much got the travel bug. And I’ve been I’ve been kind of saved again in 2015 2016. I went on to travel Asia, again, fall in kind of the different countries which I missed out last time. And now I’m in Australia kind of look into to see what opportunities can arise and
