How we got here
Late in 2017, Sal Schmidt and Wayne Schmidt took three months of extended leave, a common practice at hubby's then-age of 55.
While sitting at a bar in Frankfurt, we realised we had fallen into a rut.
Long, gruelling hours, trying to live a life of consumption.
We returned to Australia and sold our trinkets (five suitcases left at Sally's mum's house ).
To start living a slower life, of travel, less consumption of trinkets and capturing memories.
​
Two weeks later, our journey began: no jobs, two suitcases, and no plans.
​
Seven years into our nomadic life, we've built a lifestyle business, working with some of the most inspiring individuals.
​
These words now have so much meaning.
Perspective.
The average life expectancy is 78 years.
While the retirement age is 65+.
So we have worked for 45 years.
To enjoy maybe 13.
