Jessica Gee: Turning Travel Disasters into Memorable Moments

As a seasoned traveler, Jessica Gee has had her fair share of ups and downs while exploring the world with her family. From getting sick in Fiji to turning a disastrous flight into a memorable experience, Gee shares her insights on how to make the most out of traveling despite unexpected setbacks.

In an interview, Gee recounted one of the best travel moments she's ever had - a surfing trip in Fiji where everyone in her family, including her kids, caught waves. 'Every kid is smiling, and the rest of the day, everyone was just like, 'That was the best.' Those are some of the best moments as a family, when you all get to participate together and you all find joy in the same thing,' she says.

However, Gee also knows that not every trip goes smoothly. On another occasion, the whole family got sick on a flight, forcing them to spend the rest of their vacation in bed. Despite the chaos, Gee emphasizes the importance of being prepared for unexpected events. 'Being prepared in a way that when things do go wrong, that you have the financial means and the ability to miss a day, stuff like that,' she advises.

Gee's approach to travel is all about embracing the ups and downs and finding joy in every moment. She notes that even the hardest parts of traveling - getting sick or dealing with delays - can be sweetened by the good times. 'The hard part of travel, it also kind of sweetens the good times,' she says.

With over six years of traveling under her belt, Gee has learned to cherish every experience, no matter what. She reflects on a moment when she had an epiphany about the concept of home while traveling with her family. 'Then I had a realization where I was like, 'I don’t have a home.' A couple of seconds later, it sounds cheesy, I was like, 'This is my home, these people are my home.' It doesn’t matter where I am, right?''

Gee's story serves as a reminder that even the most disastrous travel experiences can be turned into cherished memories with the right mindset. By being prepared, embracing the unknown, and finding joy in every moment, travelers like Gee can turn their adventures into unforgettable experiences.
