How many times have you thought of quitting your job to travel the world?
Have you given thought to taking an adult gap year?
What is the biggest piece that is holding you back from it?
Brooke Thayer quit her six-figure job in San Francisco at the age of 34 to travel solo for one year, an adult gap year if you will. Brooke is sharing her adventures (especially during COVID), tips & tricks, and how you can make this a reality for yourself and your situation.
While this may seem like just a dream to many, it is possible, attainable, and, maybe, one of the best decisions you can make for your life and future. Learning and growing doesn’t have to only happen while you are between four walls (ahem…cubicle).
What were your thoughts on an adult gap year prior to this episode and how have they changed? Will you be planning an adult gap year for yourself soon? Share your thoughts by sending me an audio message.
Don’t forget that if you want access to the private Zero To Travel podcast feed, a bonus episode every month (decided on by YOU), exclusive content, direct access to me to answer your questions, and more. Check out Zero To Travel Premium Passport.
