The Transformational Travel Council

'Transformational travel (TT) is more than just a feeling or a moment. It is more than that flush of happiness and wonder that comes from a special experience and connection. TTC defines it as: Transformational travel is intentionally traveling to stretch, learn and grow into new ways of being and engaging with the world. Travel joins other catalysts for personal transformation and new lifestyle choices, from family and relationships to life events, personal health, etc. To be further explored, travel can be catalytic in a handful of areas: relationships, ecological footprint, consumer and travel choices, social purpose and philanthropic commitments, lifestyle and time management choices, and mindful, contemplative practice. Mission and Vision Our mission is to facilitate the community, knowledge and services that allow travel to deliver the greatest good possible, for you and for communities. We are guides and conveners of a global movement which maximizes the power of travel to positively transform how we live our lives, how we live with others, and how we live on our planet. We believe in transformation. That it is possible and that it happens from the inside out – and that it is hard! We believe transformational travel is worth it, for few other forces have such potential for personal growth, transcending divisions within and among ourselves. We believe personal intention and transformation is critical and an under-appreciated link in today’s social purpose and sustainability movements.
