Why this blog?<\/span><\/p>\n

“We want to help people learn to live bigger and capture their stories along the way.”<\/p>\n

ABC Explorers began, after being inspired by a young couple. Using the alphabet as their guide, they traveled the world.\u00a0 It had taken them several years to get to the letter W. All along, they documented their journey with photos and stories which carried us along with them. As they began to near the end of the alphabet, the male partner had something special in mind. When the couple arrived at their “W” themed destination, he had his girlfriend hold up the letter to mark their location.\u00a0 Since this was their usual routine, she never suspected that he was up to something.\u00a0 With a nod to the “W” theme, he had arranged for someone to unfurl a banner in the background that read, \u201cWill You Marry Me?\u00a0 Until the photos were developed, the future bride didn\u2019t even realize that her partner had proposed!\u00a0 Imagine the story they now have to tell.<\/p>\n

Life is really just a series of stories.\u00a0 Sometimes they are interesting, but more often our days are filled with\u00a0 responsibilities and can be pretty routine.\u00a0 We can soon become complacent and fall into rigid patterns.\u00a0 Sometimes you have to choose to be purposeful and live with intention.<\/p>\n

We have created ABC Explorers with that intention and we want you to join us<\/span><\/span><\/a> in our quest for adventure.\u00a0 Whether we are going on vacation or just creating a date night, we continuously challenge ourselves to use the alphabet as a starting point.\u00a0 Sometimes we finish the alphabet and sometimes we don’t.\u00a0 There are no hard and fast rules.<\/p>\n

Our only goal is to grow…our relationships, our writing skills, our photography skills and our understanding of the places we see.\u00a0 Our mission is to live purposeful lives.<\/p>\n
