In Their Words

Here's what Sharan Kaur shared about their RTW journey:

Why did you decide to take this trip? What got you into this type of travel, and/or influenced you to go?

It was either the career or a RTW trip. The trip won hands down. It’s taking me out of my confort zone.

What is your biggest fear about this trip?

Running out of money when i am in a fab spot of the world or being homesick

Are your family, friends, co-workers, etc., supportive of you? What is their opinion of your going around the world?

All are very supportive and think that it is a brave thing to do and most of all think it’s an adventurous thing to do.
