I spent more than thirty years in corporate leadership — telecoms, contact centres, education — doing the things you're supposed to do. Then Sandy and I asked ourselves a question most people never get past: "What if we actually did it?"
We packed the motorhome for what we thought was a 12-month adventure. Five years later, we're still on the road, still working, and still discovering what's possible when you stop waiting for someday.
"We thought it was a holiday. It turned out to be a whole new life."
