I've visited 157 Countries, Colonies, Territories & Exclaves, so far. 173 to go...

I'm finally ready to share what I've learned along the way.

Independence is my happiness,
and I view things as they are,
without regard to place or person;
my country is the world,
and my religion is to do good.

Thomas Paine

I retired from brick & mortar on my 45th birthday, April 27th, 2023. Since then, I’ve been consulting in the travel, wellness and hospitality spaces, while adding over 20 new destinations to my list of 330 countries, colonies, territories & exclaves, for a total of 157, so far…

During this time:
• I was featured on CNN.com for my Expatriation Expertise, offered at a sliding scale to At Risk Americans post election.
• I published a comprehensive Expat Intro Guide.
• I published my first photography collection, So Far…
• I survived Hurricane Helene while visiting my family in Asheville.
• I survived the Valencia floods the following month.
• I completed the 75 hour NYS Real Estate course in 2 weeks & passed the Exam…
for fun?
• I sat for three, 10 day, silent Vipassana Meditation Retreats, and served as Kitchen Manager for another between May 1st, 2024 and April 27th, 2025, my 47th birthday, exactly 2 years to the day that I closed Goodyoga after 16 years and 10 locations…and, now, the day I decided to formalize my next venture: Are We Lost?
