What Launched our Wanderlust?

Our launch into exploring the world was different...

Our Inspiration

We first launched into traveling outside of our home countries (Jeremy / USA & Bridget / Australia) through working with global NGO's as we traveled the world uplifting those living below the poverty line.  From launching orphanages in Namibia to running music, sports, and church clubs in Kyrgyzstan, we have had some off the beaten path adventures!


It's actually where we fell in love! Leading a team of fellow globe trotters seeking to bring positive change while trekking through the hill tribes of Thailand and Cambodia, we knew we would be teammates for life!

 

We explored dozens of countries in ways that you don't often do when just traveling as a tourist. Often spending several months in various locations around the world as we got to know the culture and people of many beautiful nations. 

Voluntourism

We like to encourage many people that there is so much that you can do both in your own city, and globally to uplift others. Why not combine a love for travel, seeing new people groups, and having fresh experiences while using your talents and giftings to uplift others. 

Some of our favorite organizations:

  • Hope Africa Collective  (we founded)


  • Youth With A Mission


  • World Vision
