millennials possess a desire to be in motion, and they’re only gaining momentum. There is a paradigm shift underway with a traditional “planted roots” mentality of the past and a newfound aspiration to uplift roots and explore without restraint. This mobile lifestyle is reflected through conscious simplified life choices. home is where the heart follows.
