Synopsis

Perhaps you have a longing to experience the feelings of inner fulfillment and deep satisfaction that are generated by connecting genuinely with other people, nature, yourself, and the world around you. But you're not quite sure how to accomplish this.

This book shows you, through personal examples, how to accomplish this through travel. And how, through the process, your life will be transformed.

Having traveled to 50 countries, immersed myself in countless cultures, and having learned 5 languages in the process, I have experienced these feelings of inner fulfillment and deep satisfaction that have arisen from personal growth and transformation. And if I can experience this, SO CAN YOU!!!

Advance praise

“Robert’s insights and perspectives on transformation through travel are both practical and motivational. Just five pages in and I was ready to hop on a plane in search of my next adventure!”
- Nicole Barile, Founder, NB Intercultural

“Imagine being in a dark warehouse and having only a weak flashlight to navigate with. Then, imagine that same warehouse with all the lights turned on. It would be a completely different experience, wouldn’t it? Travel can illuminate your world in the same way. This book will inspire you to want to turn those lights on. And, once illuminated, your world will never be the same.”
- Bob Sager, Founder of SpearPoint Solutions

“Transform Through Travel will teach you a lot more than how to just connect with others; it will teach you how to transform yourself, your family as well as your company culture. Highly recommended!”
- Falguni Katira, VP, Multichannel Marketing, Transformation Coach
