Our Mission
Since I have been old enough to travel, I have been passionate about flying to new places and spending a few weeks wandering around. I tried to settle for a few years in California but I couldn’t get over this taste of being in different places and meeting new people. So I decided it was time to get back on the road and share this taste of travel with like-minded people.
That’s when Globe Drifters was born. Globe Drifters is not like every other tour organizer company. Since we started, 9 years ago, until today, we pride ourselves in putting the human experience at heart of our tours. Not only do we visit the most beautiful places in the trips we organize, but most importantly, we spend quality time together, learn to know each other and create lifelong friendships.

Our Mission
(Founder)
Jodie was born and raised in Jupiter, FL and after spending much of her life in Florida she decided to move across the world to teach English in Asia.
After many years of traveling and teaching overseas she came back to America and decided to give California a try and settled in San Francisco. She loved San Francisco but did not like the rent prices so she decided to give up her apartment and focus on planning trips overseas and lives everywhere and nowhere.

After having spent 10 years in South Korea, she recently re-located in Cuba and enjoys running and schooling the unsuspecting Cuban on the basketball court.

Sandy joined the Globe Drifters team in the end of 2019 and is our cheesy french addition to the team. On the road for the past 12 years, she lived in 9 countries and speaks fluent English, Spanish and of course, French.
Currently moving between Thailand and Spain, planes became her main transportation mode. No need to say that wine and cheese are part of her genes, she likes releasing her spare energy learning Muay Thai and any dance finishing with an “a”… Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, you name it!
