“I would travel around the globe recording everything that makes life on this earth beautiful. Whether sitting by the ocean, ziplining through a Hawaiian rainforest, tracking a leopard roaming the African countryside, shopping in European boutiques I’ve only dreamed about, dining alfresco along the Ponte Vecchio, discovering treasures hidden in the world’s museums, marveling at the world’s remarkable architecture or embracing a young girl who’s grateful to have been rescued from sex trafficking, a six-month sabbatical would be food for my soul.”
