Caitlin

Age- 30

Where am I from? Redfield, IA.

Where did I go to school and what for? I went to Iowa State University. I have a hard time making decisions so I got a triple major in Spanish, Journalism: Public Relations, and International Studies: Latin America and International Communication.

What do I do for a living? Currently, creating videos and writing about this trip. In Des Moines, I was a Marketing Director at an AgTech startup called Tractor Zoom, and before that at a FinTech startup called Dwolla (where I met Ian).

Where am I most excited to visit? Returning to Spain and exploring Eastern Europe.

What am I most excited about? I’m excited to do something that I always said I wanted to do, but as I grew older thought I’d never have the chance to do. Thanks to Ian and his insane planning skills, this trip is possible. I’m excited to see who we are when we aren’t spending the majority of our days in the office.

What am I most nervous about? I’m nervous about technology breaking or getting deathly ill.

Why now? It’s now or never.
