If you grew up in the 1980s, you definitely had a crush on Linda Kozlowski. As Sue Charlton in “Crocodile Dundee,” she was the clever, beautiful reporter who could handle the outback and Paul Hogan’s charm with equal skill. She became a massive star almost instantly. But then, she seemed to fade from the big screen. So, what happened?
Turns out, she chose a different adventure. Despite her training at the prestigious Juilliard School, Hollywood kept offering her the same kind of role. So, she decided to write her own next chapter. After marrying her co-star and starting a family, she eventually found herself at a new starting line after their divorce in 2014.
Instead of trying to reclaim her old fame, she packed up for a completely new life—in Morocco. There, she fell in love with the culture and with a local tour guide named Moulay Hafid Baba. Together, they started a luxury travel company called Dream My Destiny. That’s right: the ’80s icon is now crafting amazing, personalized trips for people wanting to explore Morocco.
These days, you’re more likely to find her guiding travelers through a vibrant market or planning a desert excursion than on a movie set. She traded scripts for sunsets and film crews for fellow explorers. Her story is a cool reminder that sometimes the best thing you can do after a moment in the spotlight is to step into a new light altogether—one that shines on a life built entirely on your own terms.
