Kellie McIntyre is an author, speaker, and traveler. Her quest for culture and adventure has taken her to 50 countries across seven continents, including two family sabbaticals. Now she challenges others to travel boldly. Kellie speaks to groups and schools about the impact of experiential travel on cultural intelligence (CQ). In 2013, Kellie, her husband, and two daughters packed one suitcase each and embarked on their first sabbatical.
