My name is Jessica. I was born and raised in southern West Virginia. Traveling was basic for me growing up. Summer trips to Myrtle Beach was the norm with occasional Florida vacations sprinkled in. My first MAJOR trip was to Hawaii the summer before my sophomore year of high school. My cousin lived there at the time and was planning to get married on the island (Oahu). Plans were made, dresses were chosen, tickets were purchased AND my cousin cancelled the wedding. We went anyway! We visited various beaches to snorkel, one of which was Kailua Beach. —>Here’s something to know about me…I HATE to be hot. Mom likes to tan on the beach; me…not so much.<— So I sat out on my personally curated snorkeling excursion. I was having such a great time when I noticed an island. It didn’t seem too far away, so I decided to swim out to it. You can see it (barely) in the photo below. It’s right in the center of the picture and aptly nicknamed, Flat Island.
Here are a couple of different angles. Turns out it was a little further than I thought. But I kept going.
As I swam, I would raise my head out of the water to check my location and get back on track if I had drifted. Maybe a little over halfway there, when I put my face back in the water, I was face to face with a sea turtle! THIS MOMENT IS WHAT MY LOVE OF TRAVEL EVOLVED FROM! I will never forget that moment. This is what I want to help clients achieve.
