Speaker One: I got a lot of stamps on my passport. We went to, in one month, Mexico City, Israel, Dubai, Ghana, Bahrain and in each country there was a Boothie helping lead the way.
Speaker Two: I led a Random Walk to Hawaii and that by far was my favorite. Just the things we did and how sort of close we got in only a few days' time. It was a really great way to kick off the year.
Speaker Three: I went on a ski trip to Telluride in Montrose. That was the first time I went skiing. It was really hard, but I enjoyed it. I took a lesson and I went for it, so that was really fun.
Speaker Four: Oh, Ghana for sure. It was just unbelievable. Got to dance under the stars many nights there. It just, it was a really fantastic experience.
Speaker Five: Random Walk was my favorite. We went to the Smoky Mountains, Tennessee, Nashville. I met some of the people I'm closest to at Booth in my Random Walk. I'm eternally grateful to that gang that I met there. Best way to start your Booth journey.
