What is Thursday Travel Club?
Hey there, I’m Hannah 👋 the founder of Thursday Travel Club (TTC).
We are a boutique travel agency, focused on connecting 9-to-5 explorers to the world. Our mission is to foster connections that leave a positive impact on our destinations. This means more meaningful experiences for our travelers. While we can plan trips anywhere, our expertise shines in North America, Southern Europe, and the Middle East.
Passion Turned Profession
Our journey began in the winter of 2022, when I was unexpectedly laid off from my role at a health tech startup. Prior, I spent five years or so as a technical recruiter — managing hiring processes and connecting talented engineers with their dream roles.
Looking back on the last 12 months, I am not sure leaving recruiting was a conscious decision. Rather, an act of self preservation. The job market continues to slump for the tech industry. Unable to find work, I embraced the pivot and leaned into my strengths and passions.
Travel has always burned brightly alongside my career. I’ve explored 13 countries, so far. And have even spent time living in the Middle East. I know firsthand that the most meaningful and transformative trips require careful planning. While spontaneity can be rewarding, true connection to the communities we visit demand intention.
I understand this level of planning is time-consuming for folks working the typical 9–5 grind. Thus, Thursday Travel Club was born! A solution for travel without the burdens of extensive research and coordination.
Our Approach to Travel
At TTC, traveling isn’t series of destinations to be crossed off a bucket list. (#europeansummer anyone? IYKYK.) It’s as a profound way to experience the world and the diverse locations you visit.
Our approach revolves around fostering genuine connections with the destinations we explore. We’re committed to supporting local businesses, encouraging climate-conscious transportation, and prioritizing cultural education and immersion.
By doing so, the destinations we visit can flourish for generations to come. With us, your journey isn’t just about the trip; it’s about the experiences, the connections, and the positive impact you leave behind.
