They ditched their jobs to live in their dream destination:
Ever since they met in hospitality management school at the University of New Hampshire, Betsy and David Cartier spent years living where their work took them. They went from one hotel or hospitality establishment to another. At one point, they moved seven times over a ten year period. “Most of our life we were told where to live,” says David who has been married to Betsy for 42 years. “In the hotel business they would say, ‘this is where you’re going.
In 2013, they were living in Portsmouth, Virginia when David came home from visiting a friend in North Carolina. At the time the Cartiers owned Starboards Coffee, a spot beloved by locals which was known for the Cartier’s coffee ice cube creations. “Close the coffee shop for the weekend and pack your bags,” said David to Betsy. “You have got to see this place.”The third oldest town in North Carolina, Beaufort is steeped in maritime history.
Betsy and David’s passion for Beaufort hasn’t wavered. Shortly after they moved there Betsy was walking along Font street during sunset. Both sunrise and sunset can be experienced from the south-facing street. “As I was walking dolphins were swimming in pods right along the creek. Then I looked up and saw horses galloping along the shoreline. I felt like I was in a movie set,” she recalls. “Even now Beaufort still feels like the first day I came here. We're not moving. This is our last stop.
