Left Brain Meets Right Brain: Behind the Scenes at Gallivance

Fascinated By The World!

Greetings! We’re Terri and James Vance, global nomads sharing unique tales from around the world.

We started our journey in our 20s and never looked back – first moving to Africa, grabbing a one-way ticket to adventure. The experience humbled us, imbuing a worldview that sustains us today. Now, over thirty years later, and hundreds of one-way tickets, we’re experienced global nomads … still lovin’ it and still married!
