Meet Sarah Golter

Hi, I’m Sarah—a 24-year-old college student from Northern California, and the founder of Exclusive Expeditions. My mission is to help provide people with opportunities that everyone should experience in their lifetime. I have always been an outgoing individual. I grew up in a small town and worked around that area as a Pharmacy Technician for over four years now. Pharmacy was the first opportunity I saw when I landed my first job as a cashier at Walgreens in 2018. I was always looking to advance in any way possible with every occupation that I have had.

Unfortunately, life took a big turn for me one morning, I woke up in my hometown that was almost completely surrounded by fire and closing in, this was the CampFire of 2018. I was blessed to have assistance at that time from the community of Chico and Paradise. Life reshaped into a different perspective for me, to embrace life for impact and cherish the people you have around you. Life is the most exhilarating experience of them all so why not say fuck it, live in every moment and experience as much as you can. There will always be another day, and a new door will always open but only if you seek it.

After the Campfire, I was devastated, no wallet in hand, just a suitcase of what I could get out at that moment. After a few months, me and my mom moved in with my Grandma in a small town above Paradise, a rural area with a population of around 500. It made it difficult to continue my courses in college so I continued to work until I could get my life back in place, it took years. This was one of the lowest points in my life, I didn't have the values and principles to the extent I have today. In 2019, I had gotten a job at Rite Aid and finally achieved my goal of becoming a Pharmacy Technician license, national and state.

It was around the year 2020, that I wanted to do something for myself and I needed a break from the chaos that is my life. So guess what I said… i said, “fuck it”. I traveled to Mexico with my best friend and her family in her hometown, San Agustín. This was one of those vacations that will forever be in my memories, it was truly the best experience. I got to see the culture and a completely different environment from what I am used to. The beaches were incomparable to the beaches in NorCal, the food was amazing, and I was with people that I genuinely wanted to be around.

I knew from this point on, I wanted to travel around the world as much as possible. Traveling is one of the hardest things to do if you are considered low income. I have created a system that makes the process a little more financially bearable. My main goal is for anyone to cross paths with my content, that they will find something of use to them.
