When you look up the definition of freedom,
one of the meanings is “the power to
determine action without restraint.” This
is what WorldVentures represents, this is
what we echo throughout the globe.
OUT OF OFFICE
The Power of Freedom
We remain unique because we have the freedom to
gather and globalize. Most companies in our industry
need the basic infrastructure to act as a gathering
spot, but our company doesn’t. We have the freedom
to create joy at a travel party, Regional Training Event
or even on a DreamTrip. I’m confident in saying no
other company has this type of luxury when it comes
to cultural freedom. As members of our family, please
remember that no matter what meeting or experience
you embark on, we welcome you with open arms. We
owe that freedom to you. Thank you for being a part
of our culture and showing others what it means to
live fun, freedom and fulfilment.
At our live training events,
the smiles are just as
beautiful from continent to
continent, and you can feel
the energy in the air.
JON McKILLIP
President, Global Sales
W
hen we discuss freedom, it’s
related to people making their
own choices and knowing their
worth and what makes them irreplaceable.
Freedom encompasses the value we put
on ourselves. When we relate freedom to
WorldVentures, it’s about creating a legacy,
personal development and shaping our culture.
Our company gives you financial independence
to open up other avenues of freedom, including
travel, time with family and creating special
memories with those you choose to interact
with. The one constant I hear from my travels
is people enjoying the ability to set their own
schedule. We find similarities like these all
over the world, because everyone has the same
attraction and yearning to Make a living ...
Living!™ WorldVentures has become a color-
blind company.
Regardless of race,
religion, creed and
education, we are all
here to find our own
definition of freedom.
You can feel this
at our live training
events. The smiles
are just as beautiful
from continent to
continent, and you
can feel the energy in
the air. The beauty of
WorldVentures is that
you may not know your neighbours, but they are
standing next to you for the same reason and
living a culture we founded, together. We have
amazing Representatives, such as yourself, who
have grasped onto freedom and what that means
to the company today.

VOYAGER

T
hough formed and cultivated in seclusion, dreams don’t live
there. In the light of the social atmosphere, they grow from
belief and acceptance into a very adaptive climate. Dreams
are aspirational, an extension of your brilliance and drive, the work
of your heart and mind, calling forth your passion and dedication.
Question is, what do you dream about? What do you have to offer?
Look deep. What are you here for?
Unlike a memory, which becomes muddled and revised each time
you go back to it, each visit to your dream creates clarity — you
build, you edit, you complement, you combine, you create. When you
dream, your imagination and creativity have a dialogue with your
surroundings. What conversations are you having? Because what you
dream matters, just like what (and how) you think matters.
WorldVentures was Wayne Nugent’s dream. He pursued it and shared
it with others, and it continues to elevate lives every day. Today,
WorldVentures has become a very powerful platform for hundreds of
thousands of people around the world to live free, to enjoy their friends
and families, to travel the world, and to pursue their highest potential.
Where would we be without the dreams of our predecessors? Sir Isaac
Newton famously said that he got to where he was by standing on
the shoulders of giants. What if Wayne hadn’t acted on his dream?
What if we weren’t able to stand on his shoulders to see what was
possible? What if he listened to skeptics who said that his dream wasn’t
reasonable? Sometimes reason is an excuse to stay where you are.
If Wayne followed what was
reasonable, there would be a real
absence in the world, a lack that
would be felt by everyone his
dream has touched.
A dream is a call to action. Isn’t it time to answer the call? I’ll ask
again: What do you dream about? A better quality of life? More joy in
the world? Be careful what you dream, because what you bring into
the world can have an effect on others. Your dreams matter, but only
if you act on them. Dreams turn what you think inside out. It’s time to
show us what you’re made of.
DAN STAMMEN
Chief Executive Officer
Much of what you see and hear and
experience every day is a result of
someone else’s dream. Dreams are
where ambition and creativity meet.
They are the books you read, the
music you listen to, the freedom you
cherish. Dreams have led to countless
innovations, redefining how we think
and what we value.

FREEDOM IS NOT
MERELY A STATE OF
BEING; IT’S A STATE
OF MIND. FOR MILLIE
LEUNG THAT MEANS
CHALLENGING
TRADITIONAL PATHS TO
SUCCESS AND DEFINING
HER OWN FUTURE.
TE

Nearly five years ago, Millie Leung and
her husband, David, set out on a journey
halfway around the world that would
change not only where they called
home but how they lived. With their
1-year-old-daughter, Angeline, in tow,
the couple was relocating from Seattle,
Washington, to Singapore, where David
had accepted a job as an architect.
For Millie, the move was both thrilling
and daunting. For the first time in her
professional life, an uncertain path lay
ahead. Little did she know, the world of
possibility was about to open to her.
/// BY FUNMI OKUNBOLADE
A Conversation with
IMD Millie Leung

B
orn in Hong Kong, Millie grew up in
Vancouver, British Columbia, the
daughter of an engineer father and
stay-at-home mother. In high school, she
worked hard to become the top student in
her class, ranking first in British Columbia in
mathematics and earning a full scholarship to
the University of British Columbia, where she
followed in her father’s footsteps and received
her master’s degree in engineering.
Life, it seemed, was going according to plan.
After graduation, she worked as an engineer
in Canada. “I grew up accustomed to the
‘traditional path to success,’ ” Millie says.
“Go to school, get good grades, get a good job,
work hard at your job, save money and invest
in a diversified mutual funds portfolio for
retirement. And I did exactly that.”
Within a few years, Millie found herself
practically scaling the rungs of the corporate
ladder. She moved to Hong Kong to work for
a large, global corporation, where she soon
became one of its youngest senior managers,
overseeing a client portfolio of nearly US$50
million per year.
“Although I was paid well and had
satisfaction in my career, I was constantly
stressed out and tired,” she says. “I had little
time for myself and my family, and I was
only able to go on holidays once or twice
a year — often still checking work emails
during my vacations. Secretly, I was longing
for more purpose and freedom in my life.”
Within two weeks of moving to Singapore
in late 2011, Millie stumbled upon
WorldVentures — a chance encounter
that would become her ticket out of a
lifestyle that had become both exhausting
and unsustainable.
IMPOSSIBLE ODDS
From an early age, Millie was taught that
nothing is impossible if you are willing to
work hard. She’d always believed where
there’s a will, there’s a way. But launching
a business in Singapore as an expat, where
she knew no one and had no network, would
prove to be an arduous task.
With a young child at home — and a second
child on the way — she knew that returning
to the relentless pace of corporate life was
not an option. Building alternative income
streams, she reasoned, would allow her the
freedom to be fully present and engaged
with her growing family. WorldVentures
was a natural fit.
“When I first got started in WorldVentures,
I had been in Singapore for two weeks and
I didn’t know anyone,” she says. “So I
started with zero contacts and had a
really tough time getting started.”
She tried every way she could think of
to meet people — conducting surveys
on street corners, cold calling, posting to
Facebook groups and in online forums like
Craigslist, and attending networking events
and seminars.
And when she was able to get anyone to sit
down to talk about WorldVentures, what
followed was a string of rejections — 60 to
be exact.
“It was very discouraging and frustrating,”
she shares. “Many times I went home crying
at night, feeling defeated because no one
believed in me.”

At the time, WorldVentures was just
launching in Asia, and many of the supports
and benefits available to new Representatives
today weren’t yet in place, she says.
There were only a few hundred members in
all of Asia so there were no major success
stories yet,” she recalls. “So it was very
tough; no one had heard of us. Very few
people caught the vision and came on board.”
After facing rejection, and struggling
through severe morning sickness with her
second pregnancy, Millie was on the verge of
giving up.
Fortunately, WorldVentures’ BootCamp
training arrived for the first time to the Asian
market in November 2011, and marked a
turning point in her journey. “It was that
two-day training event with WorldVentures’
International Director of Training Marc
Accetta that completely transformed my
mind and equipped me with the skills
necessary to move forward,” she says.
Armed with a newfound self-confidence,
she quickly rose to the rank of Senior
Representative. With each training, she
says, she came away with new skills and
tools she could implement to grow her
business and develop as a leader. The
biggest lesson: accepting that rejection
not only requires thick skin but grace
and humility. Since that initial training,
she’s relied on word-of-mouth to grow her
business, a process that has allowed her to
develop a core following of people who
believe in her vision.
REAL-LIFE VALUE
From the start, Millie saw how WorldVentures
fit with her passion for travelling the world; it
ticked the box of creating additional income
so she could have more freedom in her life.
But as she’s grown in the organization,
it’s clear that WorldVentures’ Core Values,
specifically the call to “live fun, freedom and
fulfilment,” mirror her personal beliefs and
guide how she operates in the world.
“[The Core Values] help to foster trust
between myself and my team members, and
in my other relationships as well,” she says.
“They remind me of the kind of person I’m
striving to become and the kind of business
I’m striving to build.”
Having a strong vision of what she wants
to achieve in the long run also is key. Rather
than comparing herself to others, Millie has
set about doing the hard work of deciding
how success looks for her. While developing
a business in line with her values, she
has succeeded in fostering a real
“I was longing for more purpose and
in my life.”

connection with her team and forging a unique,
collaborative environment.
PAYING IT FORWARD
Since her first encounter with BootCamp, Millie has
committed to attending every one of WorldVentures’
live training events, a decision to which she credits
much of her success. The trainings, she says, have
taught her the importance of being both tenacious
and humble.
“Each time I attended a training, I came away learning
more about myself, about the mindset of successful
entrepreneurs and the skillsets I needed to succeed,”
she says. “As a result, I continue to take actions toward
my dreams and persist despite the challenges and
obstacles I’ve faced. With every experience, I’ve grown
as a person and into the leader I am today.”
Recognizing that leadership is about serving others,
and mobilizing them toward a greater purpose, Millie
has become a WorldVentures international trainer,
completing her first Regional Training Event in
Asia in May 2015. Being a small piece of someone’s
professional trajectory has been one of the most
rewarding aspects of her experience.
“I’m able to travel the world teaching others and
impacting their lives, which is extremely fulfilling,”
she says.
When it comes to mentoring, “I don’t actually spend
much of my time and effort trying to ‘motivate’ my
team,” Millie says. “Instead, I look for motivated people
who have a burning desire to put in the work.”
The best way to help her team succeed, she says, is
by getting them plugged into WorldVentures’ world-
class training system. She fosters opportunities for
information exchange by hosting presentations, team
trainings and organizing regional Super Saturday
events. Engagement is essential, she stresses.
Her commitment to bettering the lives of others
also extends to her support of the WorldVentures
Foundation™ and other charitable programmes.
In May 2014, she participated in a VolunTour to the
Blessed Homes orphanage in Mae Sot, Thailand. There,
she spent five days digging wells, building fences and
painting the youth centre, among other tasks.

The experience, she says, was
rewarding — seeing the impact on
the children as their environment
was transformed. As her business
continues to grow, Millie hopes
to sponsor children in developing
countries and to help build schools
around the world.
NEW ADVENTURES
More than two years into her
journey, she has achieved
financial freedom and has
reached the rank of International
Marketing Director. But more
important than the financial
success has been the impact
her business has had on her
family. She says proudly that
her daughters have grown up
travelling the world, collecting
stamps in their passports along
the way. For 5-year-old Angeline,
Australia has been the favourite
destination because she “loves
kangaroos,” Millie shares.
WorldVentures has opened up a
world of firsts for her girls, from
riding their first elephant in Bali,
Indonesia, to viewing glaciers in
Alaska, to skiing Japan’s Mount
Naeba. Experiences, she says, that
would have been impossible with
the hectic pace of her former life.
For Millie’s husband, David,
success has meant leaving his
job as an architect and pursuing
his childhood dream of being
a musician.
Millie’s next adventure? Aside
from trips planned to Macau, Fiji
and Guatemala later this year,
she is focused on empowering
individuals — particularly
women — to be a force for good in
the world. Modelling her business
on inclusivity and tribe-building,
Millie hopes to speak to the
struggles women have in building
wealth and creating lifestyles
that support their roles as
wives and mothers, while
nurturing their own personal and
professional development.
Given her background and drive,
learning that we don’t all find
success by following the same
path has transformed Millie’s
life. WorldVentures, she says,
has given her a chance to
express her own vision, to live
her dream and not someone else’s.
And by all accounts, the journey
is just beginning.

world teaching others and
their lives ...”

O
ne of my heroes has always been Zig Ziglar.
Early in my working career, I was selling very
expensive sets of cookware door to door. I
would have never made it in that business without
access to his training audios and the books he wrote.
While his teachings gave me many of the techniques I
needed to be a successful salesman, one thing he taught
me stood out head and shoulders above everything else.
He said that selling is nothing more than a transference
of your belief. What a simple yet powerful concept!
Techniques and skills may help us in our selling efforts,
but not nearly as much as our belief.
At the two-year mark of my cookware selling career,
things were not going very well at all. One day I got a
chance to talk to a gentleman named Bert LeRoy who was
the top salesman for the company every year. I asked him
for the secret to his success.
He asked me what my favourite food was to cook in
my own set of cookware at home. I looked at him and
sheepishly admitted that I did not own the product. I will
never forget how he burst out laughing and it seemed as if
he continued for about five minutes.
He informed me that the only way I could ever really excel
at selling something is if I believed in the product:

“Nothing will have more of an impact
on your success selling this product than

I promptly went home and ordered a set of
the very expensive cookware. As soon as it
was delivered, I opened the boxes and
cooked a meal.
I was genuinely shocked by how much
better the product was than anything I had
ever used. From that day forward, I never
struggled again. Every presentation, I simply
transferred my genuine belief in the amazing
product and sincerely told my prospects
that I could not imagine ever cooking
without it again.

he culture of WorldVentures is about
fun, freedom and fulfilment. When
you ask your customers to think
back to their childhood holidays, it will likely
conjure fun memories. It was more about who
they were with than what they were doing or
where they were going.
When I started with WorldVentures, I quickly
learned that there are a lot of people out
there who really want to take a holiday and
have fun memories together. The number one
influencing factor for your customers when
picking what holiday to go on is who will be

W
hen introducing
DreamTrips to
a prospective
customer, you’ve likely heard this objection:
“That sounds great. But I won’t be able to
take a holiday for a few more months. Maybe
I’ll consider it then.” It’s sound reasoning.
Why should customers pay for a product
they won’t be able to use right away? But,
we have a solution: DreamTrips Local. With
DT Local, your new DreamTrips Members
can sign up on a Monday and start benefiting
from their membership on Tuesday, even if
they aren’t planning to travel anytime soon.
With this product, we will bring more value to
our customers every day at home and abroad
by giving them opportunities to use their
memberships everywhere they go.
In 2015, DT Local launched in five cities
— Dallas, Chicago, Singapore, London and
Dublin — and the response has been stellar.
3. SHARE IT.
One of the easiest things to share is travel.
Announce your trip to your friends on
Facebook. Show trip details and pictures to
others on your tablet or phone. It will open
the door for you to invite your friends and
customers to go with you. WorldVentures
is a lifestyle company. It makes it easy for
you to invite others because they will see
what you are experiencing and want to
experience it, too. They will want to join you
on a DreamTrip. You won’t take just one trip
and be done. You will be able to take more and

on your tablet or phone, and look at all of the
trips we have that are coming up. How do you
pick? Look at trips you want to go on five to
ten months in advance. That is the ideal time
to pick a trip because it will give you time
to share it.
2. BOOK IT.
It seems so simple, but there is something
about taking your credit card, making the
payment, and being committed to that
trip. The moment that you book it on your
calendar, it will build excitement.
1. PICK IT.
We have an incredible array of trips, but
a confused mind never buys. If you are a
DreamTrips Member, you need to simplify the
buying process for your customers by taking
action first. You pick the trip. Pick one that
you’re excited about. Go to DreamTrips.com

Even while travelling, customers will be able
to benefit from DT Local. There are few better
ways to immerse yourself in a culture than
through its food. When customers visit a new
DT Local city, they’ll have access to the same
deals and perks as local DreamTrips Members.
EXCLUSIVE PERKS
Restaurants that partner with DT Local
are committed to giving our customers
one-of-a-kind experiences, exclusive to this
programme. Rather than simply offering a
percentage off the bill, each restaurant goes
above and beyond to offer different perks to
our DreamTrips Members, such as private
tastings with the chef, custom food and drink
menus and complimentary
appetizers or
handcrafted
cocktails. Some
customers
have even been able to spend an evening
learning how to cook from some of their city’s
most talented chefs.
DINE YOUR WAY TO A DREAMTRIP
As always, we like to push the envelope when
it comes to providing value to our customers.
DT Local is taking that idea to a whole new
level. When DreamTrips Members dine at a
participating DT Local restaurant, they will
be able to earn DreamTrips Points toward
their next holiday. Using the DreamTrips
app, all they have to do is snap a picture
of their receipt and scan the QR code their
server provides. The points are added to their
account immediately, and they’re one bite
closer to their next getaway.
This is an exciting time to be a part of the
WorldVentures family. Now more than ever,
we’re offering a product with a value
that speaks for itself. Although
“now” isn’t always the perfect
time for customers to take
a holiday, it is the perfect
time for them to rediscover
their city and even earn
DreamTrips Points along the
way. And the good news is
DT Local will be a reality for
many DreamTrips Members
in 2016.

W
ithin WorldVentures, freedom
takes many forms. We advocate
for the liberation of our Reps
from anything that stands between you and
your joy. It’s so engrained in our culture, in
fact, that it’s the foundation of the promise
we made to you when you joined our family:
to help you live more fun, freedom and
fulfilment. Without the pillar of freedom
to support our mission, how could any of
us hope to have more fun or to be fulfilled?
No matter what freedom means to you, we
strive to provide multiple avenues for you to
experience it full-force.
FREE TO GIVE
You are a part of a community whose
generosity knows no bounds. It thrives on the
spirit of giving and on the notion that we’re
all in this together. You have a global support
system at your disposal, so you’re free to give
back with abundance.
Too often, our desire to give can be snuffed out
by our own personal trials and tribulations. It’s
difficult to see the joy in giving when you feel
like you have little to offer. But because you’re
a part of the WorldVentures family, you’re
surrounded by those who will tell you that
nothing could be further from the truth. They
will give you their time, love and guidance,
and they’ll do it freely, expecting nothing in
return. They’ll build you up and show you the
best parts of yourself so you can do the same
for someone else.
How will you give back? By mentoring a
new team member? By volunteering your
time to a good cause? The choice is yours,
and you have all the support you need to

act on your decision. It starts all the way at
the top with our founder, Wayne Nugent.
His vision for you culminates in becoming
a Master in the Art of Living, someone who
strives to pay their success and happiness
forward by being a servant leader in the field
and in their community. The freedom to give
doesn’t start by hitting IMD and earning a
million-dollar ring. It starts today, this very
moment, with an open heart and a desire
to leave the world a better place than you
found it.
FREE TO BE YOU
Ours is a culture of inclusivity. Our message
transcends race, age, religion, financial
standing and education. Here, you’re free
to be you. When you joined WorldVentures,
you joined a global family of Reps who have
happily set their focus on one goal: to create
more joy. And while we’re all working toward
the same destination, our paths there are
vastly different. It is, perhaps, one of our
greatest strengths.
No matter who you are or where you’ve
been, you have a place here. You’re free to tell
your own story, though it may be different
from the person standing next to you at a
training event, because it adds new depth
and richness to our community. We are all
made better because of our diversity, as it
allows us to broaden our perspectives to see
the world through the eyes of our neighbor
and understand that our lives share the same
canvas, coloured by the same fears, hopes,
struggles and triumphs.
FREE TO LIVE
For many Reps, freedom means being able
to enjoy what they’ve worked so hard to
build: a life worth loving. It means having
the time to go to your child’s dance recital or
take your spouse on that second honeymoon
you’ve been talking about for years. It’s as
simple as sleeping in on Sunday mornings
without guilt, knowing that your worries and
obligations do not own you.
If you could never imagine having an
abundance of a precious commodity like
time, know that it is possible. No matter what
goals you’ve set for yourself, WorldVentures
can help you take back the minutes and
hours you’ve lost and put them toward the
things that matter most: your family, friends,
hobbies, passions — the things that make
you better, the things that transform you.
Your journey with us should not leave you
unchanged. On the contrary, you should be
remade through experiences that are close
to your heart. Our lifestyle affords you that
opportunity and so much more.
Imagine being defined not by the hours you
spend at the office or the memories you
didn’t make, but by the freedom you have to
choose. In the end, that’s what our brand of
freedom offers you: a choice to be happier,
healthier and more fulfilled. Whether you
choose to pursue this business part time or
want to follow in the footsteps of the field
leaders who came before you, you have the
opportunity to enrich your life and live it
on your terms.
“No matter who you are
or where you’ve been, you
have a place here.”

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE FREE

I
t’s no secret that we have one of the
best products available to anyone who
enjoys travel. But, when you’re telling a
potential new customer about DreamTrips,
it could be easy for its true value to get lost
in translation. How can you encapsulate that
much wonder and excitement, those stunning
scenes and exhilarating excursions, in a brief
conversation? Well, our talented video team
is here to help.
Why simply tell people what it’s like to take
a DreamTrip when you can show them?
In the DreamTrips app, you’ll find dozens
of professionally recorded videos shot on
location, from Colorado to Greece and many
places in between. Know someone who’s
always wanted to visit China? You could
show them a full recap of a past DreamTrip
to the Great Wall, complete with customer
testimonials, from the palm of your hand.
While your words may paint a vivid picture,
there’s nothing quite like a firsthand account.
Using these videos, you’ll be able to showcase
exactly what it’s like to take a DreamTrip.
Potential customers will get the whole
picture: the breathtaking sights, the sounds,
the activities, the culture, the community and
much more. They’ll hear directly from current
DreamTrips Members who love the product
and want to tell their stories. You can even
access different cuts of the same video: one
for millennials and one for the baby boomer
and the Generation X crowd.
All of these videos are also housed on the
WorldVentures and DreamTrips YouTube
pages so you can easily share them from
your social media accounts. When words
aren’t enough, these videos are here to
help. Make sure you and your team are
using them to your advantage.

You are free to
explore the world
we live in. In this
issue, we’ll visit
three iconic cities
— Philadelphia,
Prague and Tokyo
— to discover the
sights, sounds,
tastes and cultures
of these unique
and fascinating
destinations.

NORTH AMERICA
SIGHTS
Explore the City of Brotherly Love
Immensely compact and walkable,
Philadelphia’s downtown offers a wealth
of history within several blocks. In fact,
the National Constitution Center and
Liberty Bell are across the street from one
another. These two American icons are
moving no matter your home country;
enjoy them on guided tours, audio tours
or solo exploration.
From there you can stroll through
downtown, visiting the City Center District
and the newly remodeled Dilworth Park
right in front of City Hall. In the winter,
Dilworth hosts an ice skating rink; in the
summer, there are beautiful, newly installed
fountains that are entertaining to watch.
Nearby, is Rittenhouse Square — four evenly
placed city blocks, created by William Penn,
whose initial design remains today. There’s a
statue honouring Penn in Rittenhouse Square.
There are two important caveats to visiting
Philadelphia: Don’t miss the historic sites which
are absolutely imperative, and don’t miss the
many things beyond the historic sites. The
birthplace of American freedom, Philadelphia
offers you the freedom of both.

TOP 5 THINGS TO DO IN PHILLY:

2. Eat a Philly cheesesteak.
3. Visit Independence Hall.
4. Check out Reading Terminal Market.
5. Experience America’s first zoo.

WHERE WILL YOU GO NEXT?

NORTHAMERICA
For nearly a century, there was a gentleman’s
agreement that no building could be built
taller than the feather atop Penn’s hat, but
that was eventually overshadowed with the
advent of skyscrapers.
DINING
A Taste of Philly
Your path through downtown will no doubt
build an appetite and a thirst. Take heart,
Philadelphia can satisfy both. Chef Kevin
Sbraga’s namesake fine-dining restaurant,
Sbraga, offers a seasonal menu served in a
decidedly rustic, yet modern, setting. Also in
Rittenhouse Square is Vernick, which Zagat
ranked number two in all of Philadelphia,
specializing in highly prized small plates and
sumptuous large ones. And there is Osteria,
which, since opening in 2007, has become one
of the country’s most highly acclaimed Italian
restaurants in an inconspicuous setting.
Reservations are recommended at all three.
Many of the restaurants in Philadelphia do
not have liquor licenses, hence the “BYO”
designation in tour guides or in store
windows. This simply means you’re welcome
to bring your own beer, spirits or bottle of
wine, usually without a corkage fee.
Speaking of “whetting your whistle,”
Philadelphia has no shortage of plush bars
and neighborly pubs. The Happy Rooster
has a full bar and scores of brews, as well
as a tasty lunch and dinner menu. National
Mechanics in Old City is visibly a converted
church or bank — wait, it’s been both. Or
try McGillins, touted as Pennsylvania’s
oldest bar. While imbibing, be sure to nab
one of the Mechanic’s T-shirts reading “We
Survived Prohibition.”
Lastly, no visit to Philly is complete
without a Philly cheesesteak. Rather than
incite a riot here, ask a native for their
recommendation. The answers will vary; the
results will not disappoint.

SIGHTS
See for Yourself
While the city is best known for the photo of
the Charles Bridge that spans the Vltava River,
there’s much more to see. Wenceslas Square,
St. Nicholas Cathedral and the Jewish Quarter
are worthy of a leisurely visit and are either
free or charge a nominal fee. For instance,
your ticket to the Prague Jewish Quarter,
Josefov, grants you admission to six separate
venues including a Jewish history museum, a
ceremonial hall, several synagogues and the
Old Jewish Cemetery. But not all history in
Prague is centuries old. The John Lennon Wall
was created as an expression of freedom shortly
after the musician’s death in 1980 and still
stands today.
DINING
Local Fare
For a literal taste of Prague, try the local
eateries and pubs. Pivovarsky Dum near
Wenceslas Square is a rest-your-weary-feet
local hangout; Budvar Bar in Old Town
won’t be listed in many tourist guides, yet
has a write-home-about goulash and an
endless menu of beers; and U Fleku serves
a delicious plate of a Czech favourite,
svickova, roast beef with cranberry sauce.
CULTURE
The Gift of Prague
Many of your discoveries in Prague will
come quietly and beautifully, like opening
an unexpected gift. In front of the National
Museum, amongst the cobblestones is a
memorial to Jan Palach. He was a 20-year-old
Czech economics student who died in 1969
at this site, protesting the demoralization
that ensued after the Soviets invaded
Czechoslovakia the year before. At first he
was considered a martyr, but later became
revered as a symbol of the changes that
would take place in the coming decades for
the citizens he left behind. Flowers are placed
at this solemn memorial nearly every day.
Prague: the Golden City, the City of a Hundred
Spires and the Heart of Europe. It’s also known as
an immensely affordable destination that offers you
the freedom to see more, do more and experience
more. On the value scale, Prague is absolutely
without compare. And what you experience for your
travel dollar is also without equal.
Think of the capital of the Czech Republic like Las
Vegas, which can be very expensive and touristy if
you only visit “the Strip.” Yet just a few blocks away
are deals to be had and uncharted territory to be
enjoyed. No doubt, you have to visit the Old Town
Square, but you’ll be amazed by the architectural
poetry and unexpected finds that are slightly off the
beaten path in Prague.

ASIA-PACIFIC
SIGHTS
Sublime Landmarks
While Tokyo conjures images of oshiya,
or “pushers,” the attendants employed to
push people onto the crowded Tokyo Metro
during rush hour, it’s a city of beautifully
tranquil gardens. Shinjuku Gyoen National
Garden, with an entrance fee of only US$2
is one of the world’s most meticulously
manicured parks, perfect for a picnic,
especially during cherry blossom season in
the spring. The Meiji Jingu is a landmark
among Tokyo temples which visitors call
“the sanctuary in the city.”
It’s a city of hustle and bustle, with seemingly
endless neon. But like the world’s most
endearing cities, you can visit a dozen times,
never having the same experience. And on
a cloudless, sun-drenched day, Mt. Fuji, less
than 100 miles away, is a gracious backdrop
to Tokyo’s skyline.
DINING
Sushi Breakfast
On the other end of the serenity scale are
Tokyo’s many fish markets. The best known
(and hardest to get into at 5 a.m.) is the
Tsukiji Fish Market. Check online for booking
details, but you can see a live tuna auction
each morning and can have your first sushi
breakfast — which given the certainty of
jetlag, isn’t far-fetched.
Statistically, that makes it sound like an
intimidating city. But in visitor terms it’s been
called “gentle, friendly, spotless and unbelievably
gracious.” The numbers become friendlier when
you realize this sprawling city is divided into
20 separate wards. Each has its own sights,
sounds, reasons for being and countless
things to explore.
Like so many of its comparable
metropolitan counterparts, one of
the best ways to explore Tokyo
is with a rough game plan, an
unbridled spirit of adventure
and terrific walking shoes.

Sushi Tours
As for sushi, there are a number of tours
which local sponsors or a concierge can
personally recommend. Not surprisingly,
some of the best sushi restaurants don’t have
English menus, won’t be found on maps and
may not even have signs outside. Yakitori,
which is delicious skewered, grilled chicken,
can also be found virtually on every block.
ENTERTAINMENT
Sumo Tournaments
The Tokyo SumoAssociation has tournaments
in January, May and September, but during
the rest of the year, you can easily attend
open amateur tournaments or visit a sumo
stable to watch the wrestlers practice. Often
the pageantry between the matches is as
impressive as the wrestling itself.
SHOPPING
Boutiques and Curiosities
Tokyo is a shopper’s paradise. Not only
will you find high-end fashion and trendy
boutiques that rival Paris, but there’s
a whole world of Japanese curiosities
that will widen your eyes. Culinary gifts,
puppets from around the world, second-
hand vinyl and CDs, Japanese art and
swords, even vertical pinball machines. If

ravel is more than getting from one place

Travel is about discovery — the ability to experience

our “Travel Matters” series, our resident travel
enthusiast, Jim Menge, inspires us to pursue
freedom and happiness through travel.

FREEDOM
I remember the day I got my ﬁrst passport. I was
overcome with the realization that with these few bits of
paper, I could see the world. I was free. Freedom means
doing what you like — unrestrained, unrestricted, self-
determined. I was determined to travel the world and no
one could stop me. Travel is the ultimate expression of
freedom; the freedom to leave home, to roam the earth, to
see the world through the eyes of those you meet along
the way and to share your world with them. If you want to
see the world, go for it; make a plan, book a ticket. Be free,
do what you like.

Travel is the ultimate
expression of freedom. The
freedom to leave home,
to roam the earth. To see
the world through the eyes
of those you meet along
the way and to share your
world with them.
FPO
People often ask me, “Jim, why did you travel to 100
countries?” After my initial response, “Because they
were there,” I end up thinking about the question long
after it’s been asked and answered. Why did I travel to
100 countries? Why, as soon as I hit my goal of 100, did
I set a new goal to visit even more? Well, I suppose it’s
because, for me, travel is an expression of my freedom.
I travel because I want to and how awesome it is to be
free to do it. If you love to travel, go travel. Don’t wait for
circumstances to align perfectly; it may never happen.
Don’t wait for your holiday time oﬀ to add up, because it
never will. Freedom makes you travel. Travel makes you
happy. So do it and do it often.
The Southwest Airlines chime and quote,
“You are now free to move about the
country,” comes from a place of freedom.
Their advertisements are about movement,
happiness and mobility. Whenever I cross a
country border, I am free. If freedom means
doing what you like, then happiness means
liking what you do. I travel not just because
I can, but because I want to. I like, no, love
to travel. When you travel, go not simply for
the next destination. Make the journey itself
your destination, travel for travel’s sake.
Each ﬂight, each hotel, each train ticket is an
opportunity for you to gain a new experience,
to see the world from a new perspective. If
you want to be happy, travel!

aspect has been

realize their dreams.”

C
areer paths can take many twists and
turns. Such has been the case for Kim
Burke, who blazed her own trail and
abandoned the traditional corporate path.
Kim, who hails from Canberra, Australia, was
heading to college when the sudden death of
her mother derailed her plans. After taking
a year off to reassess her life, she decided to
forgo formal education, and joined the New
South Wales Fire Brigade.
Meanwhile, she launched a company to assist
clients with debt reduction and investments.
Over the next several years, Kim started
multiple businesses, including a property
development firm and a recruiting agency.
“My passion throughout all my businesses
has been to have a vehicle that could add
value and help people change their lives,”
she says.
Despite her success, the minutiae of
entrepreneurship — competition, employee
issues and uncertain finances — took a toll. “I
was tired, burnt out and, to be truthful, I had
lost my spark in life,” she says.
An introduction to WorldVentures five years
ago allowed her to pivot once again. At the
time, the company had not yet expanded to
Australia, but once the opportunity became
available, she immediately jumped on board.
Initially attracted by the travel feature, Kim
also saw an opportunity to help others and
enjoy the freedom and flexibility she craved.
In just 14 months of launching her business,
Kim was named Regional Marketing
Director — an accomplishment she credits
to her drive and her commitment to nurture
“extraordinaires,” as she calls her team
members. “The most rewarding aspect
has been helping [others] realize their
dreams, seeing them grow, develop and … be
recognized for their achievements,” she says.
Though she’s faced her share of setbacks, Kim
says she’s in a good place. “When I aligned
with my purpose and listened to my intuition
— and not the opinion of others — I let my
light shine and success came to me.”

t took losing almost everything for Bill and
Robyn Meywes to gain what truly matters.
The pair, who have been married for more
than 25 years, had all the trappings of success
— a beautiful home, nice cars and plenty of
“stuff.” But their picture-perfect life came at
a price.
Bill, who toured the world in his youth
representing Australia in track-and-field
events, longed for the freedom he once had.
“I missed that sense of wonder — what could
happen, where I could go, whom I could
meet,” he says. His work as a “barrister”
(lawyer) was lucrative but corporate life, he
adds, was drudgery.
All that changed in 2010, when the couple lost
nearly everything in a bad business deal. By
early 2014, Robyn was the sole breadwinner
and the couple was two weeks away from losing
their home.
“I found myself at age 50 wondering what I was
going to do,” Bill shares.
Then, a friend invited Robyn to hear Michael
Catlow give a presentation on WorldVentures,
which was expanding to Australia. “It’s as if
someone reached through and said, ‘This is
your life line,’ ” Robyn recalls.
But Bill was skeptical. “It’s the lawyer in him,”
she jokes.
Bill credits Michael with finally helping him to
see the potential. “He shared with me the truth
of his experiences and I sensed his integrity.”
It’s this honesty that Bill and Robyn bring to
building their team. “We’re not selling. We’re
sharing real experiences and giving people the
opportunity to engage,” Bill explains.
The strategy works. Bill and Robyn became
Australia’s first Marketing Directors and rose
to Regional Marketing Directors. “The greatest
reward this has given us is time as a family,” Bill
says. “We have the freedom to let go and have
amazing experiences.”

eflecting on that day, Max, now 10, says: “It was
fun to play football with the kids even though
we didn’t speak to each other because we don’t
speak the same language. We still understood what we
wanted to do.”
The fifth-grader had gone to Guatemala on a VolunTour
to build bottle schools, a Hug It Forward initiative that
unites residents and volunteers to construct schools
using eco-bricks made from plastic bottles stuffed with
inorganic trash. Max — who was accompanied by his
parents, Rainer Zimmermann and Angelika Dahmen —
says he was excited to serve.
His parents’ volunteer experience in Thailand 10 months
earlier inspired the family excursion to Guatemala.
Driven by a desire to “make a difference in the world,”
Rainer and Angelika had taken a VolunTour with
WorldVentures Foundation to Blessed Homes orphanage
in Mae Sot. The home serves as a beacon of hope for
children displaced by war in neighbouring Burma.
In a dirt field in rural
Guatemala, children play
with abandon beneath the
December sky — chasing and
kicking the football ball that
9-year-old Max Zimmermann
brought with him from
Singapore. Some little feet are
bare; others grip frayed shoes.
There’s no lush playing turf,
goalposts or even a net. But
none of that matters. It’s all
about the love of the game.
HEARTS AT PLAY
How a Boy and a Ball United a Community
/// BY FELICIA FULLER

Feeling privileged to provide Max the charmed life that
orphans can only imagine, the couple says they felt
compelled to include him on future service trips.
“Our next VolunTour was in December [to Guatemala]
and it was important for us to participate as a family,”
Rainer recalls. “We believe that as we engage our child
in positive experiences that are linked to our values, we
pass those values on to him.”
Angelika says Max was “profoundly impacted” by the
experience, and Max agrees.
“It’s changed me because I now think a lot more about
kids who don’t have a school to go to and learn things,”
he says. “Some of us don’t like to go to school and would
prefer to spend the day doing what we want instead of
going to school. But these kids want to go to school and
want to be educated.”
Max was so moved that, upon returning home, he sought
the support of his classmates to introduce the bottle
school concept in a theatrical presentation. All students
were required to do a term exhibition on the topic,
“Decisions That Made Social Change.”
“The other classes picked other people who created
social change, such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.,
Singapore’s [former Prime Minister] Lee Kuan Yew,
Rosa Parks — and we picked Hug It Forward,” Max
says. “I showed my class a summary of what we did in
Guatemala. My class put together a performance to
show the rest of the school how I worked with the kids
and elders in the village to build these schools. We used
plastic bottles that we brought in from home and we
mimed the rest. We spent around three to four weeks to
prepare the performance.”
The bottle school presentation was so well-received
that Max won the school’s Care Award. Administrators
also invited him to address their Education Group about
potentially adopting bottle schools as an ongoing giving
project. Regardless of the outcome, Max says, his personal
commitment to bottle schools will continue.
“Currently, I’m raising funds to build a bottle school,” he
shares. “On my birthday in November, I asked my friends
to give me a donation for that school. My friend Ivan gave
me a present and an envelope with money for the bottle
school — that was the best!
“We have a really good life. And when we see others who
have way less but they are happy, then we appreciate
more what we’ve got and focus on other things, such
as spending time with family and friends, without any
electronics involved. Just outside having fun.”
“It’s changed me because I now think a lot more about kids
who don’t have a school to go to and learn things.”

“
Because of WV, I have been able
to bid farewell to a 14-year-long
career in private banking and
threw my suits and financial
calculator away forever! I do
what I love at home. I am more
productive and work just as hard,
but now I’m doing it for myself
and generations to come! I am
now working within my purpose
... my passion. I am now a full-
time mother to my kids! I’m now
a full-time wife to my husband. I
am present in my life. Thank you
Wayne and everybody who made
WV a reality!”
