I have a friend who is on a year-long journey across the globe, and posts her thoughts and photos from her travels on a blog. Every couple weeks or so, I visit the blog to see where she’s been, what she’s done, who and what she’s seen.
Although in my own life I’ve never left the United States, through her, I’ve seen Japan, Uganda, Thailand, India and more. Because of her travels, I feel more worldly and connected to the amazing people, animals and cultures that fill our globe. And even though she hasn’t held a full-time job (other than tourist and amateur photographer) in nearly a year, I have no doubt her experiences will make her an attractive candidate whenever she decides she’s ready to re-enter the workforce.
