Hey, I’m Jamie. Welcome to Contre Courant, a Travel Blog!

Inspired by how travel can open minds and broaden perspectives, I ditched the corporate world to start sharing my stories.

I hope to encourage others to step outside their comfort zones, embrace the unfamiliar, and connect with the world around them—because if I can do it, you can too.

My husband, our one-year-old son, and I recently moved from Hawaii to the East Coast, where we’re diving into our next big project: renovating a 56-foot sailboat we plan to sail around the world.

Until we’re ready to set sail, follow along for guides, tips, and personal stories to fuel your own adventures!
