Gabby Beckford: Why You Can Travel the W...

Livi Redden
About this episode

"Gabby Beckford is a Gen Z travel and lifestyle entrepreneur who specializes in travel tips, writing, marketing, and seeking opportunities (not necessarily in that order). She took her first solo trip to Iceland at 17-years-old, and never truly came back home!

In college, Gabby won more than $75,000 in scholarships, including $40,000 in study abroad scholarship which allowed her to study for one year in Dubai, UAE at no personal cost, and ultimately to graduate with her Mathematics degree completely debt-free.

In the 1.5 years since she has visited her 29th country, started her business Packs Light L.L.C., spoken at travel conferences, and helped send young adults to countries such as Russia and Azerbaijan completely free by sharing funded travel opportunities she calls 'Packs Light Travel Opps'.

On her road to world domination, Gabby hopes to continue empowering others to seek risk, seize the opportunity, and see the world."
