FTLO Travel

Happy birthday to our founder, Tara Cappel! ?? Your passion for creating unforgettable experiences and bring people together has cultivated such an amazing community, and we’re so happy to be a part of it. Here’s to many more years of adventure and making memories together! ?? #HappyBirthdayTara #TravelCommunity #ExploreMore #solotravel #grouptravel

Happy Birthday to us! Dare I say... cha cha cha? ?? What started as one trip has turned into a journey around the world (and back again). And we wouldn’t be here without you. Along the way, we’ve watched strangers become best friends, travelers find their forever adventure partners, and so many take their very first international trip with us. Some of you have even joined us for more trips than the years we’ve been around. ?? Since we’re feeling nostalgic today (and love a good trip down memory lane), drop your favorite FTLO moment in the comments and tag who was there with you. ?? #FTLOturns9

Work sabbaticals often become transformative experiences. For Mortenson Project Manager Chad Tenold, he took advantage of the extended time away to go on a long-awaited international trip to explore the other side of the world. From touring Japan & Kenya with others he just met to exploring the United Kingdom, Australia & New Zealand on his own, Chad was able to fully disconnect from the day-to-day demands that come with managing a large construction project. His experiences strengthened his appreciation for traveling while prioritizing the need to take time for himself and enjoy the things he’s passionate about outside of work. What could you experience during an extended work sabbatical? #SabbaticalStory
