As part of a family with a big travel bug, setting off on adventures is a major component of my life. However, one of my favorite parts of the travel experience is the anticipation and daydreams that we can have before we even leave home while planning a trip. Learning more about a country and culture through developing an itinerary, and subsequently exploring these far-flung places in real life, creates the memories that last a lifetime. I take great pleasure in sharing the stories of my own and my colleagues' travel experiences, and great excitement linking people from all over the world to each other. Each trip knits us together a little bit more as families, friends, spouses, coworkers, visitors, and residents. Jets, planes, trains, boats, ships, cars, bicycles, or even our feet - those are the vehicles for our dreams. It is amazing, that, in a previously unknown destination, we can arrive as strangers and leave as friends – that is the magic of travel.
