Yvette Morrissey shares how she quit her job in New Zealand and sold everything she owned to travel the world solo. In two months Yvette saved $8,000 NZD (without any savings to start with) and moved to Canada where she spent a season working at the Big White Ski Resort. Yvette introduces us to the concept of "accidental adventures" and teaches us how being open and following your intuition can lead to some of the most unforgettable life experiences.
