At age 30, Kim Dinan gave up everything she'd worked for to chase a dream. She convinced her husband to uproot their comfortable life in Portland, Oregon, to go after something she really wanted deep down inside: to travel the world, and to write. They sold their house, got rid of most of their possessions, and set off on a journey that ended up lasting several years. All along the way, she wrote, starting with a blog called So Many Places, that began to gain a large, loyal following. In April 2017, Kim then realized another of her greatest dreams, which was to see her own book on the shelves of her favorite bookstores. Her memoir, The Yellow Envelope, chronicles her and her husband's sabbatical journey and also how they ended up giving small charitable gifts to people they met along the way. In this interview, Kim shares with host Lisa Hoashi what went into her decision to take her sabbatical leap, how she and her husband made it happen, and how she used her break to become a professional writer.
