August was a month of change for myself and my family. We officially have relocated from our home in San Diego, CA to Surprise, AZ. The move was a challenge to say the least but after settling in, we are thrilled with he decision. We’ve been greeted with “Wy would you move from San Diego to Arizona?!” several times and the truth can be told in one word. COVID.
The reality and impacts that the current pandemic has had on our entire world is undoubtedly historical. While many areas of the world are starting to open and move again, our poor Travel industry is not one of them. It’s been a long 6 months since the world has stopped moving. From planes in the sky to ships in the water, Travel has been affected greatly and while it may not seem like this day will pass, it will and when it does, we will all be here. Eager, excited and ready to help our friends, family and clients #getbacktotravel.
