VISION

JOIN OUR MISSION

Transformative travel is our passion. We create powerful and meaningful experiences for our travelers by partnering with some of the best tour operators, nonprofits, community wisdom keepers, artists, naturalists, local guides, tourism boards, lodges and camps across the globe.

Check out our 4-part process that is adopted from our favourite partners Life Pieces to Masterpieces based in Washington DC.

LIFE PIECES TO MASTERPIECES

Life Pieces To Masterpieces (LPTM) uses artistic expression and a unique Human Development System to develop character, unlock potential, and prepare African American boys and young men to transform their lives and community. 

We love their work because it changes the way young black men and boys see themselves, the way the world sees black boys and young men and nurtures them to serve as leaders in mending our shared humanity.

HOW WE PARTNER!​

The Transformative Travel process, “the 4 C’s” is adopted from Life Pieces To Masterpieces’ signature creative process! 

Transformative Travel is proud to support young men of LPTM in creating outdoor experiences that cultivate deeper connections to the natural world, to one another, and themselves.
