Show Notes
When Susan's mom, like many elders, endured many months of isolation in her assisted living apartment, she had one request for her daughter, "Can you bring the world to me?" As a lifelong traveler, she missed getting out and seeing the world.
Susan's response was, "We should never ever have to stop exploring or revisiting places that we have dreamed about or that we love just because of our current circumstances."
This inspired Susan "to develop Wowzitude: a remote, community-based travel club, live-streaming interactive travel programs and tours, designed to encourage conversations, meet locals around the world, and explore or revisit destinations together."
As a lifelong travel lover, thank you Susan for sharing the world with us. Looking forward to seeing you grow and I'll be there looking for my next trip!
