About Amylee Silva

Some people stumble in to a life of travel; I on the other hand was born in to it. I was 1 year old the first time I sat on plane, and I was five when I first flew by myself. Since then I have been on over 120 flights, 5 continents and 23 countries. I have travelled for business, pleasure, with friends, family, and with out; on organized tours and then sometimes just travelled on a whim. Some people work to live, others live to work, but I live to travel. G Adventures has always been and will always be the leader in adventure travel. G Adventures inspired me many years ago to travel and now that I am a part of the team, I look forward to inspiring many others to do the same. Actor Javier Bardem once told a reporter “What about being in the place where you want to be? That’s even more valuable for me.” Where do you want to be?
