After a tough divorce, Claire Volkman found healing through travel and online dating, leading to new adventures and love.
After moving out of her home, she quickly flew to Myanmar for an adventure that helped her reconnect with herself. Each day was filled with new experiences, laughter, and a sense of belonging with her travel companions.
Back home for Thanksgiving, she jumped into online dating, connecting with someone who made her feel excited again. But as life often goes, that relationship didn’t last. Still, she kept exploring, traveling through the Middle East and Australia, where she rediscovered her joy and spontaneity.
In her travels, she met new people and even had a one-night stand that reminded her of the fun side of life. But it was in Greenland, surrounded by inspiring women, that she truly found her strength.
Returning to Indiana, she decided to give dating another shot. She met a guy who shared her love for adventure, and it turned into something special.
Looking back, Claire realized that heartbreak opened her up to new possibilities. That year of travel taught her to embrace life’s messiness and trust herself. Now, as she sits with her husband and child, she reflects on how losing herself helped her find her way back to happiness.
