No Lifeguard on Duty

By Judith Kitzes

Travel, adventure, sustainability, embracing aging because it's going to happen. My drug of choice is travel, and if I'm not doing my own, I'm creating it for others. Jump in, the water's fine.

Encouraging others to venture out into the world in more self-reflective and sustainable ways is a considerable undertaking in my mind and we need all the voices we can get advocating for it.
