​In late 2017, Sal Schmidt and Wayne Schmidt decided to take three months of extended leave to celebrate Sal's 40th birthday in Europe.
​
While sitting at a bar in Frankfurt, Germany, Wayne, then 55, realised that we had fallen into a rut. We were working long, exhausting hours and leading a life centred around consumption.
