Quit my job & bought a one-way ticket to Medellín

After months of wrestling with the decision, the passing of my grandpa and role model inspired me to finally take the leap.

After a year and a half, I quit my desk job at 240 W 30th Street and jumped on a one-way flight to Medellin, Colombia, both excited AF and scared shitless.

I had one $500 freelance design client and the only words I knew in Spanish were tacos, burritos and baño.
