Description:

Tayloria Grant traveled to Italy for the first time when she was 16-years-old. After going through a divorce and leaving her corporate career, Tayloria went back, by herself, in 2014. She has been back to Italy every year since then and at the age of 40, she decided to learn Italian. Although she didn't know it at the time, her solo travel opened a new door for her and this experience led to her starting her own travel business, One Full Life. 

 

Key Insights:

*Tayloria spent 20 years in corporate America.

*By  the time 2014 came around, Tayloria had went through a divorce and was in the middle of switching careers.

*Tayloria loves family and girlfriend trips, but she really, really looks forward to traveling by herself.

*Why did Tayloria travel to Italy?

*There's a misconception that solo travel is lonely and that's completely not true!

*Tayloria is a planner, but she's learned that when you travel, you have to be more in the moment.

*Solo travel doesn't mean you'll be alone the entire time. You'll meet (and become friends with!) so many different types of people.

*Tayloria paints a picture of what Italy is like.

*Tayloria decided to learn the Italian language at the age of 40.

*In Tayloria's entire life, she has never hung up clothes on a clothes line. She came to that realization when she had to dry her clothes in Italy.

*This experience made Tayloria question what was really important in life. Owning a dryer is nice, but it's not important.

*People outside of the U.S, in general, live a lot simpler. After Tayloria's trip to Italy, she thought deeply about a lot of the possessions she had and started to purge them.

*Tayloria talks about the September retreat she's hosting.

*If you'd like more information about the upcoming retreat, feel free to message Tayloria!
