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.

Now, over thirty years later, and hundreds of one-way tickets, we’re experienced global nomads … still lovin’ it and still married!
