I boast of three wonderful children, daughter 37, and two Sons 34 and 30, all born and raised in Kenya. My four adorable grandchildren who were born here (USA), complete my … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the song, “Once in a Lifetime” by the Talking Heads: You may find yourself living in a shotgun shack. And you may find yourself in another part of the world. And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile. You may find yourself in a … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »

The travel seed was planted at a very young age by my grandfather, who was my biggest inspiration. He worked around the world as an engineer and sent me beautiful postcards from all the different countries he went to. He brought back souvenirs such as magnets, pictures, and currencies which I still have. After each … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »

It started innocently enough…. I made the decision to move on from my job. Somehow that became a major life change that saw me quitting my corporate finance job, selling my house and hitting the road to travel for 2 years! It all started in April 2017.

Although I’ve hit refresh many times throughout my 20’s, doing it in my 30’s has been a whole new experience. Edging towards my mid-thirties now, I’m annoyingly conscious of how loud my inner clock is ticking. Even still, it hasn’t stopped me from inching my way towards new homes, new experiences, new relationships and a … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »

How a bad day at work changed my life: There I was, a month before my 30th birthday (2005) in a job I no longer had any passion for at all – Retail Merchandising. I just didn’t care if our top store ran out of Dior’s “new must have” lipstick in one day, and that … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »

The latest chapter of my ‘hit refresh’ journey begins on a grey overcast, mid-June day in 2014 at Le Havre, a port in northern France. My boyfriend-at-the-time, Stuart, and I had just stepped off the ferry. There we were with 2 bikes, 2 bags each, 2 months ahead of us, and 2 big paper maps … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »

I’m one of those people who make a big deal about her birthday. Each year, I do something special to celebrate the occasion. This could be a dinner with friends, a big party, a trip, a spa day or just quiet time alone. When I was a child, I loved the attention (and of course … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »

There have been countless times I have hit refresh along my life’s journey so far and, each and every time, I have often wondered why I hadn’t done it before. I have always had an addictive personality, continually searching for perfection whilst at the same time being very hard on myself. For many years I … Member Spotlight – Florence Read More »
