CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life!

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Jennifer. My husband, Stevo, and I love to travel and have been living, working and traveling abroad since 2011, first in China and then in Cambodia. We are currently based in Thailand.

We love to spend our time exploring wherever we are, trying local foods and meeting new people. We also love to read, write, watch comedy, watch movies, and enjoy time with friends, new and old.

We have both done a good deal of international travel in the past and love to learn about new places and people. Stevo is a stand-up comedian and he performs whenever possible when we're traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a positive outlook on the world and try to enjoy every day. I believe that smiles spread and laughter is contagious. I want to make this world a better place and try to live every day doing something to make that so, even just picking up a piece of trash at a park. I hope to have a big impact on the world and want to inspire others to get out and have adventures of their own. I am a very fortunate person and want to share the love I have been given in my life with others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am so fortunate to have a long list of amazing things I've done and seen in my life. One that stands out in my mind is watching a funeral ceremony on the Ganges river in India. It's still something I have trouble believing that I witnessed, and was a profound experience I had while in India.
