Working in the travel industry for (don't make me tell you how many years), and receiving my degree in Geography - Travel & Tourism and Marketing from DePaul University, my love of gallivanting has never waned.

Are river cruises appealing for the easy pace? Are expedition cruises of interest for the adventurerer in you? Do you prefer an active vacation to include hiking or biking through the countryside? Would you prefer to be pampered on a custom itinerary? Or a self-drive vacation through Europe?

Is Cuba of interest? It is an island bursting with music and art and history and fun.

For just a sun and fun vacation it is hard to choose which Caribbean island to enjoy, but I've visited most from A to T (Aruba to Turks & Caicos) - no islands in that region start with a "Z".

If South America is on your "to do" list and you envision yourself winetasting in Argentina or Chile, hiking on Easter Island, or seeing what is new in Colombia, then we should talk.

So many places on Earth to enjoy - from eco-tourism in Costa Rica, Mayan culture in Guatemala and Mexico, to the vast array of cultures, food, and geography of Europe - Spain & The Canary Islands, Portugal, Italy & Sicily & Sardinia, France & Corsica, Germany, Greece, Czech Republic, Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Ireland. If North Africa holds an allure, whether visiting the archaeological site of Carthage in Tunisia or the Medina in Marrakesh, Morocco, I can plan your journey.
