To balance out the hard work, travel became part of the rhythm. Not extravagant journeys or constant movement, but just enough to step outside the familiar. Those moments of travel created space to breathe, to reset, and to see things from a different angle. A change in scenery, even a small one, has a way of sharpening perspective and reminding us why the work matters in the first place.
Along the way, we met and greeted people from different places, cultures, and walks of life. Sometimes those encounters were brief, sometimes they lasted longer, but each one added something valuable. Travel didn’t have to be excessive to be meaningful—it simply needed to be intentional. Just a little movement, a little exploration, was enough to bring balance, insight, and renewed energy back into the work.
