Why We Travel A bit of history about the beginnings of Big Story Living Standing at the top of Nerudova Street while peering down at the rain soaked cobblestones and pastel storefronts, the street lights danced like a watercolor painting come to life. Life had led me to this beauty without my understanding, and in the awe of that moment, a much needed awakening and healing simultaneously overwhelmed me. I’ve never been more certain that travel and faith are the most perfect of companions than I was on my first evening stroll through Praha.
