Thanks for sharing this, Scott. Good to hear from you. So true…serendipity isn’t quite the random lightning strike as it is sometimes framed.

There’s been so many instances in my life where I felt some resistance to doing things –not because it didn’t feel right but because I just didn’t feel like it. lol. When I did it anyway, those moments became one of the best times I’ve ever had.

This is such an important mindset to have when you’re traveling. Thank you for sharing this with us Daniel!

As you have so eloquently stated, I so agree that serendipity doesn’t always just strike at random like lightning, you’ve got to create the conditions for it. It will always be easier to shut down and stick to a tunnel vision of a place or its people, but every time you open up, you are rewarded I find.

So important, to embrace what works not only on the road, but in life back home. Thanks, Eric.

That’s the idea, a useful, productive mindset. Glad this resonated, particularly the bit about the role of the choices we make.

Thanks, Kristen. Looking forward to crossing paths again. Let’s hope it doesn’t involve any recent encounters with deadly poisonous Namibian plant species!

Glad this resonated, Kate. Opening the heart (and mind), can’t argue with that.

I never thought of “assisted serendipity.” The things that happen to us aren’t necessarily always serendipitous, but rather a result of the choices we make or the possibilities we open up for ourselves. It’s a great mentality for when we travel to different places.
