As 2025 comes to a close, I (Patti Hunt) reflect on a year of meaningful travel stories, powerful conversations, and personal transitions. In this solo recap episode of Inspired Travels with Patti, I revisit standout interviews: from sailing the East Coast and traveling full-time in an RV to service-based travel and navigating travel with kids and special needs. I also share my own evolving relationship with travel, what’s ahead for 2026, and why travel doesn’t have to be far from home to change your life. This episode is an invitation to reflect, get inspired, and start planning your own next adventure.
