leap of faith

4/22/2013

3 Comments

 
Ever since college, we have taken several leaps of faith that have given us new perspectives and changed our lives.  I studied in Spain where I discovered my love for travel and made a life-long best friend.  After college, we moved to a city knowing no one but each other and left 5 years later with a group of amazing friends we consider our Chicago family. We have tried different roles in our careers which have challenged us and allowed us to learn while contributing to organizations we really believe in.  Our careers have also brought us many unique experiences like dining with a US President, working in foreign markets like Brazil & Dubai,  and even being challenged to a dance-off by Tracy Morgan at an Emmys after-party (he obviously won).  Once we went really far beyond our comfort zone and swung over a giant canyon in New Zealand suspended from a cable car 525 feet in the air (see the video footage below).  Some of our best memories have occurred one leap outside of our comfort zone.

In less than 2 weeks we'll be taking another leap of faith when we start our trip around the world. Our loose itinerary includes the following destinations:

May - Colombia, Peru, Puerto Rico
Early June- South Africa
Mid June-Mid Aug- Southern & Eastern Europe
Sept - Australia & Bali
Oct-Dec - Still TBD but will include some combination of the following contenders: Hong Kong, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Singapore, Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia

Follow us on our adventure here and please send us any and all recommendations, tips, and feedback! 

Here is the video of our last major leap - swinging over a canyon (fast forward to 1:40):
