I am so excited to share this collaboration with my gap year friend, Blake Boles, founder of Unschool Adventures. Besides being the adventure of a lifetime, it's so very affordable! Read all about it!

Gap Year Launchpad: Explore, Learn, Grow – Together.

Are you dreaming of exploring Europe, but find the idea of solo travel a bit overwhelming? We have the perfect solution for you.

We're thrilled to announce our new Gap Year Launchpad program, a partnership with Unschool Adventures that will set you on the path to an incredible journey! This is a unique opportunity for 18- to 23-year-olds to kickstart their first big trip alongside a group of motivated peers – and we're giving you everything you need to get started:

🏠 A base in the heart of Brussels for 10 days of travel training
🚆 A Eurail pass to explore Europe at your own pace
💡 Expert guidance from Blake Boles and Ivey Patton
🛫 Then you launch into Europe with newfound friends and confidence

When & Where?
📅 June 9-19, 2025
📍 Brussels, Belgium

📅 June 19-?, After your 10 days of intense (and fun!) travel training in Brussels, you will set out on your own European Adventure with your new friends, with our continued support!

Who Can Join?
🌍 20 young adults (ages 18-23) eager for adventure

Cost:
💰 $1900 before Dec 1, 2024
💰 $2100 after Dec 1, 2024

Why is this the Best Deal Ever?

Here's the kicker: The cost of Gap Year Launchpad is the same as my regular gap year counseling package. If you were already considering signing up for my gap year coaching services, then now is the time – because you'll receive a European adventure alongside all my counseling services…for free! If you weren't considering gap year counseling, it's still an amazing deal. Summer programs for young adults are wicked expensive and this offers so much more! We will share ways to raise money for your trip as well as ways to travel safely on an extreme budget, so if you want a big bang for your travel dollars…THIS IS IT!

Travel is better with friends, and this is the perfect way to learn, connect, and explore before diving into your independent travel journey. From safety and budgeting to creating meaningful experiences, we'll cover it all during our 10 days in Brussels. Then, it's up to you: with a Eurail pass in hand and new friends by your side, your adventure continues – for as long as you want!

This program isn't just about travel. It's about learning by doing, growing with peers, finding your path and feeling the thrill of exploring the world with confidence. You'll live in the bustling heart of Brussels, join in on workshops, small-group adventures, and get hands-on travel training. Most importantly, you'll leave feeling ready to make your travel dreams a reality.
