The Future of Sabbaticals: Todd Babiak at TEDxEdmonton

[@MichaelKalmanovitch]

Good talk Todd.Many years ago I took off on a bicycle trip (I was gone for over a year) and my father told me - why don't you settle down and stop roaming. My response was - many people tell me - I wish I could do what you are doing. I didn't want to be one of those people regretting not doing something that is healing, exciting, therapeutic, interesting and rewarding. Those experiences are still with me and help to create who I am. I never thought of it as a sabbatical - more like a gap year.

Todd is really nice in person. As a young T.V student I learned more from him in the first five minutes of talking to him than I did from anyone else the whole evening. Thank you again Todd
