Over the past eight years, the travel influencer, known as 'The Bucket List Mom,' has visited more than 90 different countries with her entrepreneur husband and their three children.
Aside from a one-off trip to Europe, the furthest Jessica Gee ever travelled while growing up was to Walt Disney World in Florida with her family.
However, over the past eight years, the travel influencer, known as “The Bucket List Mom,” has visited more than 90 different countries with her entrepreneur husband Garrett and their three children Dorothy, Manilla and Calihan.
“I never had the thought in my brain that ‘I want to travel around the world,’” Gee, from Denver, Colorado, tells CNN Travel. “That was never me. But the more I get out there, the more I want to see.”
According to Gee, everything changed when her husband, whom she first met while on a church service mission in Vladivostok, Russia, sold his app to Snapchat for US$54 million in 2014 and decided to quit his desk job.
“We were in a weird situation that maybe not a lot of twenty-something-year-olds are put in,” Gee admits. “We were sitting on some new wealth, and we didn’t know what to do. So we decided that we were going to set that all aside, and see what’s out in the world.”
The couple, who’ve been married since 2009, were keen to experience different cultures and “just learn a little bit.”
“We still felt so young and naive,” adds Gee.
