Go Solo Live

Kimberly Ramsawak knew that a traditional job, with a cubicle, just wasn’t for her. Counting down the days, so she can take enough vacation to escape, just seemed counterintuitive. Kimberly had a very clear vision for herself, and she knew that life had to have travel integrated into it, which meant her job had to, also. Find out how Kimberly made her solo travel dreams happen, and still continues to make it happen with a husband and a child at home.
