Happy four years to our heart child @theroamingrepublic 🖤 📍Phuket 🇹🇭 Thailand 📸: @cclaydigital Four years ago, @cedinthecity and I combined forces to curate what we thought was a one-off trip to Thailand. A trip so good, we had to run it back again six months later, a trip so good, we had to make it official and launch our passion project @theroamingrepublic a few months later. Since then, I’ve watched what we created [and the world around us] evolve, change and grow before my eyes. I’ve watched myself grow and change more than ever as a result of running this lil baby RR. Four years later, we returned to the same villa and the same dates with a new group of Roamers. It being our first time back without Ced made it an emotional one but I know this group lived up to the energy he would have expected 😆. (#PTF IYKYK) Four years and 12 trips later and it still pulls my heartstrings to witness in real-time the moment when a group of strangers shifts to family and friends. This thing we do here is bigger than just taking a lil random group trip. This is breaking comfort zones, this is creating life-long bonds, these are core memories being formed and experiences people will never forget and - through the late nights, tears, doubts and stress - I’m so so grateful that I get to be apart of this. Thank you #BAHTandBoujee III for the reminder of why we do what we do. This trip was one for the books and Ced’s spirit was all over it✨🕊️ If you missed it, you can watch the recap in @theroamingrepublic’s story highlights.
