Sophie’s soul-stirring journey through the captivating landscapes of New Zealand in 2009 led to a life-changing realization she was meant to travel. As she soaked in the breathtaking fjords of Milford Sound, she felt an overwhelming sense of awe for the beauty of the natural world and an urge to keep exploring. A year later, Sophie embarked on a trip to Vietnam, where she kayaked on the emerald waters of Ha Long Bay.
Even when she got married in 2013, Sophie showed no signs of changing her on-the-go lifestyle. Her husband embraced her lifestyle, and now, with their two kids, they keep on making memories together as they go on their family adventures.
“I’ll never forget that time,” Sophie recounted as she reminisced about her trip to the enchanting town of Chefchaouen in Morocco. “There I was, wandering the narrow, blue streets, when I decided to strike a pose for the perfect Instagram shot. But a mischievous goat had other plans. Just as my friend was about to take a picture, the goat decided to nibble on the corner of my sundress! I couldn’t help but shriek in surprise, attracting the attention of the locals who couldn’t contain their laughter,” she chuckled. “So, before you strike a pose, make sure there are no goats around!”
