  • Description

    Hi, we’re Laurel and Marc, best friends who also happen to be very happily married.

    We have traveled and worked in over 20 countries and today we are excited and grateful to be able to travel the world, experience the planet and its people, explore new ways of living, and grow and learn as we move into our next phase of life.

    What we bring:
    - Curiosity, kindness, appreciation, openness, and love for people, cultures, food, wine, and animals (especially dogs).

    - Passion for contributing in a meaningful way to the dreams of others through educating, coaching, marketing consulting, hosting, and building new things.

    - Flexibility and enthusiasm to whatever the opportunity brings.
