In 2010, I stepped on a plane to India. What followed was an eye-opening, poignant experience, an impactful glimpse into our planet and the millions of stories it tells each day. This, coupled with five years of adventure after that trip, cultivated in me an insatiable habit for both listening to and writing stories, and thus Gotta Keep Movin’ was born.
