“Explore the World, Live Luxuriously, Spend Wisely.”

“It all begins with the crave to experience something larger than you. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to be a star in a movie. Or maybe you have a creative project to help change the world. For me it was wanting to explore more of what the world had to offer. I wanted to feel the highest of the highs at mountain tops and then I wanted to share my journey.”

Who we are & What we do

Hi, I’m Chandler a.k.a the “Bouijee Backpacker”. I was born and raised in Manapalan, NJ and even as a young child I knew I wanted to travel to anywhere and everywhere my legs could take me. In 2018 I graduated from Rutgers Business School with a Bachelor’s of Science in Supply Chain Management and later on received my MBA from UNC-Chapel Hill. Currently I am a Founder and Member of Palm Berries - an acai chain established in North Carolina that has 7 brick-and-mortar location grossing over $4 Million in annual sales in just 5 years from inception. I also own and operate Gottlieb Consulting & Book-keeping as a one-man-band. My unique entrepreneurial experience combined with my business background and education allows me to be able to do what I love and travel the world without breaking my bank account.

According to the Access Development Blog, 89% of people want to travel to destinations they've never visited before and 56% of Americans are taking a vacation this summer! For the roughly 44% staying put, 60% cited high travel costs as the reason.
It is my goal to help change the mind and lives of the average American. Whether it's fear, finances, or finding the right vacation spot I am here to help you navigate all of that as stress free as possible.

“Fear, not having the finances, or uncertainty of where to go and how to get there shouldn’t be the contributing factors to never being able to see the beauty of the world. I want to change that for as many people as possible .”
