Until three years ago I'd only left the country once in my life... back in high school... and it changed me. So why didn't I go anywhere for the next 25 years?  It's a question I can't answer. But I solved the issue in 2019 when I took me, my wife, and our son to Paris. Since then (pandemic aside) I've made travel a priority. In fact, this past year I've been to Los Angeles, San Diego, Orlando, Las Vegas, Columbia, Milwaukee, and Charleston... not to mention London, the Amalfi Coast, and Punta Cana.  I know that for many, travel is a luxury. And I do not take it for granted. In fact, I've made it a priority and have worked very hard to be able to travel as much as I do. On today's episode I'm sharing my biggest takeaways from a year spent zig-zagging the globe.      ***** Want to learn more about my Restaurant Accelerator Mastermind?  Click the link to schedule a FREE 30-minute Strategy Session: https://www.restaurantstrategypodcast.com/schedule
