~ From living like a queen in Thailand & ridding in private jets, to working on a farm in Zimbabwe - Brittany's life is anything but boring.~

In Thailand earning just $1,000 bucks a month she was afforded 3 massages a week and treated her friends to dinner like a true high roller. Later she said yes to a charming French man who offered the spare seat in his Toyota camping car. 

Favorite Quotes:

“Well there is an empty seat next to me.”

“We have to live like children… A child lives with curiosity, excitement, and fearlessness. They think with their hearts.” 

“If you travel slowly and wisely you can live on less.” 

“If we live in France we would have to work just to eat.” 

“Pace is something that if you’re in a couple you’re always working on.”

“The key is the journey is the goal.”
