It sneaks its way into those of us who give ourselves the space and grace to evolve and the courage to answer life\u2019s <em>what ifs<\/em> with <em>let\u2019s find outs<\/em>.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Like Valeria in Mexico who left a career in music to become a tour leader. Like Khoy in Cambodia who saw an opportunity to help women and refused to shush it. Like Eric in Ghana who wondered what if how we leave this life could look a lot more like how we lived it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Like Maacah, a traveller drawn to her late father\u2019s homeland of Timor-Leste who opened herself up to a community of elders who welcomed her \u2018home\u2019. And Emma, a new mum who felt her identity as a traveller was fading away until she sat for a moment with a reflection of her younger self.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Each of them asked: what if there\u2019s another way to think, do, be and feel \u2013 and chose to go on a journey to find out. Each of their stories bears a little reminder that, when you\u2019re open to it, a change \u2013 of scenery, of pace, of perspective, of tune \u2013 can be the cure to all that ails you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read more issues:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:30% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><a href=\"\/adventures\/the-good-times-vol-5\/\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"670\" height=\"948\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/TGT-vol-6-cover.png\" alt=\"The Good Times magazine by Intrepid, volume 6\" class=\"wp-image-86992 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/TGT-vol-6-cover.png 670w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/TGT-vol-6-cover-212x300.png 212w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/TGT-vol-6-cover-585x828.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><strong><a href=\"\/adventures\/the-good-times-vol-6\/\">Volume 6<br><\/a><\/strong>October 2025<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flip through The Good Times Some say travel has the power to transform you, but change doesn\u2019t just strike out of the blue.
