Founders Story: Nick & Dr. Sarah Abel

From the sun-drenched beaches of Southern California to the bustling psars of Cambodia, their worlds couldn't have been more different. When their paths intertwined, it wasn't a meeting of two hearts, but a collision of two universes.

Their shared laughter over cultural differences and amazement at each other's stories were the brushstrokes on a vibrant canvas depicting a life of global wanderings. The joyful chaos of raising their own little explorers, gave birth to a company that empowers others to journey farther. TravelBug – a travel medicine company rooted in wild adventures.
