In 1977, Clay Hubbs, a former journalist, modern literature professor, and study abroad advisor, set forth on a groundbreaking mission based on his vision and vast experience as a traveler and explorer. He founded Transitions Abroad, a platform that would go on to inspire and guide countless individuals, including travel writers, in their quests for meaningful work, expatriate life, immersive travel, and study abroad experiences.

With five decades of living and traveling abroad to countless countries, Clay Hubbs and our team of contributing writers, including many digital nomads, have amassed a treasure trove of stories and experiences. Our journey began in an era when tourists were a rare sight on many parts of the globe. Today, as storytelling takes center stage in the world of travelers, we invite you to explore and share your own current adventures with TransitionsAbroad.com and our international audience.

Clay's son Gregory Hubbs took over the website, and is ensuring that TransitionsAbroad.com's content remains driven by ideas and information many travelers of all ages and professional travel writers will find inspiring. We feel that all forms of travel, work, living, volunteering, and study abroad should be explored. We cover organized programs and emphasize individual custom paths for travelers of all ages, and actively encourage creative new ways to explore and transform yourself and the world for the better.
