Have you ever dreamed of leaving it all behind to travel the world?
Matt Javit has been traveling the world full time after leaving the United States in February 2017, experiencing over 30 countries and 100 cities since making the difficult decision to leave his career at his peak to discover the beauty of the world. Before his departure, he had a high-achieving, beautiful life in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he was a top-performing sales executive for an international technology consulting company winning 5-straight international sales awards. He loved hanging out with his friends, spending quality time with his family, and making new connections in his vast network. But, he liked to travel and experience new adventures, so he and his wife decided to fulfill their dreams and pack their bags for a 2-3 year adventure around the world.
In this episode of the Be Real Show, Matt and Travis open up the show discussing Matt’s inspiration behind his international travels with his wife. Plus, Matt describes how he chose the destinations; they didn’t take winter clothes, so they followed the sun for twenty-seven months. First, they would book the big trips to different continents; in between, they would figure out the logistics to get from country to country. Then, Matt explains how he started Passport Joy – he thinks career gaps will be much more familiar with the next generation. From traveling all around the world, Matt has made lifelong friendships. For instance, Chris Gayle, a world-famous cricket player, invited Matt to his birthday party in Jamaica. Stay tuned to hear Matt answer the top ten questions; Matt reveals the only book that he brought on his travels.
