🚀 I don’t have a bucket list, but if I did, this weekend’s adventure would be on it!

Feb 10, 2025

I travel a lot for work, hopping from country to country, helping schools rethink education. But no matter where I go, I always carve out time to explore—whether it’s a city street, a local dish, or, in this case, the skies over Cape Town.

🌍 This weekend was next level.
✅ Two stunning beach towns in South Africa
✅ Amazing food & snorkeling in crystal-clear waters
✅ Meeting incredible, kind people
✅ Spectacular views

And then... something I never thought I would do. Something that wouldn’t even cross my mind as a possibility:

✈️ I flew from Cape Town to a dirt strip and back, sitting right next to the pilot.
Flying over Cape Town, seeing the full city from above, touching down on a remote airstrip, soaring through the clouds with Table Mountain visible from over 100 km away—what an unreal experience!

If someone had told me five years ago that in 2024/2025 I would:
🌍 Travel over 180,000 km
🏫 Work with schools on five continents
🔥 Help transform education across the world

…I would’ve thought they were nuts. But here we are.

I feel blessed and honored that people trust me to help rethink how learning works.

💡 Because when motivation, happiness, and purpose come first in schools, development follows.

And that’s exactly what I’ll keep doing.

Where has your work taken you that you never expected? Let me know!
