Come along as I take you with me to the island of Jamaica! Traveling to this picturesque Caribbean island with a small group of fellow travel advisors gave me the chance to experience this incredible destination for myself.
I share my totally unbiased review of our resort, Moon Palace Jamaica Grand, plus dive into the way in which I "see" a resort verses how someone sighted sees the same thing. I also share with you the most incredible moment of the trip as I rode a chairlift up to the top of Mystic Mountain. My hope is that you'll come away not only wanting to travel to Jamaica, but also realizing that there is so much more to a destination than just what the eye can see.

Saying goodbye to her home in California Tee McNeill set off on what would become a continuous trip around the world. Tee McNeill, the owner of McNeill Luxury Travel shares her story of living out of a suitcase as a digital nomad. Living for a few months in one corner of the world before moving on to another Tee finds a deep sense of belonging in each place she visits. Tee also credits her nomadic lifestyle to the life-changing trips she is able to curate for her clients.

But that’s not all that makes Tee McNeill so interesting! Have you ever heard of Forest Bathing? Tee gives us a look inside this profoundly moving practice of connecting ourselves with nature. As a travel entrepreneur, digital nomad, history geek, travel blogger, and friend I could think of no better person to be a guest on the podcast!

This episode may very well leave you questioning everything you've ever been taught. What you thought was impossible, something that only happened in the movies, I'm about to show you just how real it actually is! Come along as I take you full-circle – From the moment I became blind to nearly 14 years later learning to see again, just in a different way.

Prepare to discover 3 important life lessons all packed into this single episode:

1. You can never imagine how someone you meet is going to impact the rest of your life.
2. Don’t let yourself be limited by what the world tells you is true.
3. The impact that experiencing a place like a local can have is life changing.

A special thank you goes out to World Access for the Blind and to my instructor and friend, Brian Bushway for opening my eyes to what is possible in the world!

A bit more about our guest:
A native of Zimbabwe, Sandy Salle was born and raised in southern Africa and was fortunate to travel to many places in the southern part of the continent. While she is now happily an American citizen, she does miss Africa—the smell of the first rains, the beautiful sunsets, and the magic of the people. Believing the next best thing to living in Africa is sharing it with others, in 2002, Sandy founded Hills of Africa travel. Sandy is Hills of Africa’s personal escort and takes great pride in giving her clients the once-in-a-lifetime, magical African experience they’ll remember forever.

Sometimes you just have to be willing to throw Political Correctness out the door. You have to not be afraid to offend your mother, brother, sister, or the neighbor next door. You've just got to say what you've got to say. And that pretty much sums up my conversation with none other than Mark Murphy himself!
 
 Mark Murphy is a well-known name in the travel industry. He is the founder of travAlliancemedia, the leading travel trade media company in the United States. He is a best-selling author with his two books: Travel Unscripted and Travel Forward. Plus Mark is a familiar face on major television networks and news stations including: The Today Show, CNN, FOX News, NBC, CBS, ABC, and The Travel Channel.
 
 I had the chance to catch up with Mark while he was vacationing in Colorado. Sitting outside of a Starbuck's Mark spoke openly about everything from his view on the state of travel in the midst of the Coronavirus to his dislike for face masks to even rehashing an old story of him sending me a shattered coffee mug.
 
 What makes this conversation with Mark Murphy so great, is the fact that the guy is absolutely hysterical! If you're game for a brutally honest conversation about life and travel, then go ahead and hit PLAY!

At a time when everyone is talking about social distancing I thought it made sense to talk to the people who have been social distancing before they even knew it was a thing. When you're on 550 Thousand acres in northern New Mexico the only thing you have to worry about coming too close to is a herd of bison!

I had a chance to sit down with Doug Lindauer, Vice President, Sales and Marketing with Ted Turner Reserves to learn all about Vermejo, their luxury guest ranch in New Mexico. If you're game for some exciting and interesting stories paired with a look at an incredible vacation opportunity for the entire family then this is the podcast for you!
