Travel & Hospitality
This page of resources belongs to the Adventure Living Library.
Our family likes to go places.
Damien is an experience junkie. He adapts really well and is a great problem solver; his INTP brain seems to thrive on the stimulus of new situations.
I am more set in my routines and I love home sweet home but I also appreciate having interesting experiences, seeing new places, and I especially love meeting people. In addition, I was raised in a very hospitable home, people coming and going all the time. My parents even ran a bed and breakfast for a while.
Put the two of us together and you get a couple (with three big kids who are a combination of the two of us) who like to meet new people, host people in our home, and travel places together.
