CURRENT MISSION

Preparing to spend a year abroad on a round-the-world trip meeting amazing people, learning languages, and making awesome memories!

ABOUT ME

Hi everyone! My name is Shazia and I'm a student from Provo, Utah, the USA. My husband Taylor and I recently got married and made a goal to spend one year abroad. We left Utah in August 2015 and we're currently in Europe! While we're traveling we are learning languages, meeting new people, and enjoying a location-independent lifestyle.

PHILOSOPHY

Taylor and I are opportunists! We dream big and take the chance to travel and go on outdoor adventures close to home whenever we can. We believe the main purpose of life is to become better people and to serve others, but life should also be filled with FUN! We love getting to know other people and hearing about their unique stories--it's the best part of traveling!
