Expedition: Humanitarian
Guatemala 2023

Who We Are

We are women who just wanted a dependable, like-minded group of friends to travel and share experiences with. We are also driven by a deep-seated commitment to making a positive impact on communities we visit around the world. Connected through the belief that responsible travel can be a catalyst for change, we have set out on a mission to bridge the gap between adventure and altruism. Our trips are for those who love exploring new destinations, experiencing different cultures, and learning about challenges that differ from our own. We typically include accommodations, some meals, daily activities, in-country transportation, cultural immersion, connection with local nonprofit organizations, and a gift or two for our fellow travelers. Our team is composed of compassionate and experienced travelers who share a common vision: to embark on journeys that not only inspire wanderlust and build friendships but also contribute to the well-being of the destinations we visit. 


Expedition: Humanitarian is not a travel agency. We curate and go on the trips we offer, which are not designed to make anyone a profit (except of course the tour companies and other professionals that we work with in each country). We are not “selling” you a vacation. We are offering you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to connect with other amazing women and share experiences that generate positive change in all of us. 

Our Mission

We believe that travel is a transformative experience that can enrich our lives and broaden our perspectives. Our mission is to organize trips that support the exploration and discovery of new cultures through travel that focuses on volunteerism and a deeper understanding of the places we visit. Through this travel style, we become the catalysts for global change by carrying our experiences forward and generating awareness of issues outside of our comfort zones. 

Our Vision

We envision a world where travel equals giving back and connecting with the people who live in the places we visit. We seek to move in a direction of global inspiration and a broader understanding of cultures that differ from our own. We believe that we have so much to learn from the world around us, and we are eager for the experience. 

Meet Jodi: Our Chief "Expedition" Officer!

Hi, I'm Jodi! I've prioritized travel my entire adult life because I think it opens minds, changes hearts, and makes us better human beings overall. Plus, I truly believe that memories are really what matters. In recent years, when abroad, I have made a point to connect with local charities and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) because that is where you really get to know a place and its people. I launched Expedition: Humanitarian in the fall of 2022 after returning from a life-changing trip to Egypt, where I spent time with a local Bedouin tribe. When I got back, friends and colleagues were reaching out, asking so many questions and wanting to join me on my next adventure. I decided that my give-back to the world would be to lead women on these affirmational retreats focused on partnering with nonprofits, deep cultural connections, adventure, building friendships, and experiencing the world together. These are small, intimate, and carefully crafted trips that only happen twice a year, and I can't wait to experience the world with you!

"Amazing trip!!! Filled with so much fun and adventure! Very well planned with just enough down time to rest and be ready for the next activity. Loved learning about the island, its unique lifestyle, and history. Excitedly looking forward to the next Expedition Humanitarian trip!!!"
