Suffering is temporary. It gets better.

Where I am right now is exactly where I need to be.

Lavi Scholl and Ollie Gamblin, pictured above, met in Australia in 2017 when they were both solo-traveling and working on a farm. 

The sparks were instant, and the couple began traveling together soon after, living out of Ollie's camper van for a while before deciding they wanted to travel the world as much as they could. 

A motorhome wasn't conducive to international traveling, so, after some brainstorming, they decided their best bet was via motorbike. 

That was nearly 600 days ago. And 39 different countries and one Vegas wedding later, the husband and wife just earned the world record for youngest duo to circumnavigate the globe on a motorbike. 

• “It was quite an endeavor to set out and say, ‘Right, we’re going to do this,’” Gamblin, from the UK, told CNN Travel. “We didn’t really know how long it was going to take. We didn’t know whether we’d get to the end!”

The leap: The pair got in touch with Guinness World Records before their trip to see if they could possibly break the record. Neither of them had ever traveled long distances on a motorcycle. 

• Ollie and Lavi had to meet certain requirements set by the World Record books, which included beginning and starting their trip at the same location, traveling in one direction continuously, and traveling through two antipodal points.
• Over the next year and a half, Ollie and Lavi traversed the globe, traveling ~47,000 miles through the rough terrain of Morrocco, humid rainforests in South America, and high elevation in the Andes Mountains.
• The riders, along with many of their family and friends, threw the couple a huge welcome home party on November 19th of last year. 

👀 Looking ahead... The couple are already planning their next trip, and hope to inspire others to take the leap and adventure while they can. “A lot of people find a lot of reasons not to do something,” said Ollie. “And they think they have to be ultimately prepared in every single way… We didn’t have everything worked out on the way, but we did manage to work it out as we went along.❤️"

Twelve-year-old Suborno Isaac Bari graduated from Malverne High School in Malverne, New York, last week, making him the youngest scholar to ever graduate from the Nassau County school. 

The tween skipped 5th, 6th, 7th, 9th and 11th grades – completing his 4th, 8th, 10th and 12th grades in Malverne Union Free School District while passing the New York State Regents examinations to graduate. 

• He shared that high school has "been an absolutely wonderful experience." 
• ... while school counselor Rebecca Gottesman shared the young student is
  "the most exceptional student I've ever met academically... He's really a prodigy."

🎓 Looking ahead... Suborno is heading to New York University this fall to pursue a bachelor's degree in math and physics. 

❤️ One Australian family is feeling grateful to their neighbors, as their six-year-old daughter has been put into palliative care for severe epilepsy. In desparate need of disability accessible housing and a wheelchair vehicle, Justin and Ashlee Wallace were blown away when their community stepped forward and helped provide everything they needed – and more. "[Now] we can actually sit back and be parents, and not be all the hats," said Ashlee. "Now we can focus on her unicorn party that's happening at the end of July, to give her the best time ever."

🍦 Did you know Ice Cream College exists?... It's real, and located at Penn State University. The weeklong crash-course is all about the science behind the frozen treat, and is often full of employees from popular ice cream companies, including Hudsonville, Hershey, and Baskin Robbins. According to Dr. Bob Roberts, the head of the food science department at Penn State, “our target audience is people who are serious about ice cream."

🐬A helping hand... Last month, ~125 Atlantic white-sided dolphins were found stranded in shallow waters along the Herring River in Massachussetts. But thanks to a quick-thinking team of rescuers, the school of dolphins was rescued and pushed out to deeper waters.
