Hello and welcome to the page of our website completely devoted to our upcoming Trip around the World! Growing up Elizabeth traveled a lot with her family and by the time she got to college she had big plans to travel while teaching over seas but around that time she met a guy! After meeting, Jordan settled down in Birmingham, bought a house and found a job he loved. Although we seemed to want different things with our future we knew one thing, we wanted to be with each other. So, in the midst of COVID we got married. We spent our first 2 years of marriage cashing in all our PTO and traveling to 35 states around the US, sleeping in our car, eating PB&Js and trying to make the most of the little time we got together. 2 years into marriage we knew that how we were living wasn't going to work. Although we were living lives we loved our marriage had fallen victim to the American dream. We worked opposite schedules and often felt so burnt out when we were together that we just wanted to sleep and watch TV. So, one day Elizabeth, who still felt a nag for adventure, posed an idea: what if we take our savings and spend one year exploring the world. Jordan was unsure about this untraditional lifestyle but after many many conversation, pros and cons lists and research we made the hardest decision we've ever made. We decided to leave the life we loved, but were surviving, in search of a life our where we could truly thrive together!
