Travel is a top priority in Jonathan Thiang’s life, especially destinations that are off the beaten path
While Jonathan Thiang, 39, has always enjoyed travelling, about a decade ago, he decided to formally commit to spending 1-2 months abroad every year.
You like to go to places that are different – where there is poverty, unrest. Is that what interests you? You don’t want to go to the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre like everyone else does? A view along the Dry Stone Route hiking trail in the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range in Mallorca, Spain.Travelling in India and Ecuador, you certainly see widespread poverty. It’s a sad thing, but it is one of those things that has helped me have a better appreciation for how lucky I am.
I do research on the security situation. I purchase evacuation insurance. I’ve always wanted to go to the Democratic Republic of Congo but it’s not something I’m going to do unless there’s some way to get the sort of protection that is required.Do you ever encounter pushback at work for all the travelling you do? Or are your co-workers/managers understanding and supportive of all this travel?
