This weekend was a lovingly and joyously a bit atmospheric transporting me back to some unforgettable trips I have taken in the past. In being so transported, I dreamt of travel and longed to pack my suitcase and go somewhere. Anywhere. Well, not exactly anywhere. But almost anywhere. […]
The solar eclipse is coming. How prepared are you for this momentous occasion? Me, here, in California will have to experience through reliving my past memories and by living vicariously through those in Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska and across to the east. When I was a kid, I […]
I have this really obnoxious friend that has been to probably 100 or more countries at this point in life. That isn’t the obnoxious part. But I won’t go into why he is so obnoxious and why it is that he is my friend. I tend to […]
As a New Yorker I grew up in what is ostensibly a concrete jungle. Skyscrapers and towers dominate the skyline. At night, New York truly glows and it is a thing of beauty. I find it beautiful and have tried to instill that love into my son’s heart. […]
I love the adventure of traveling around around the world. And while I like planning some parts of my trips, I don’t necessarily plan everything out. I like to see what I find on the ground. Obviously some things like traveling between countries while already on the […]

Sometimes I want to write a letter to the powers that be to let them know that I would be ok with the world being normal for once. Last year, when we headed off to South Africa everything seemed more or less normal. Well, as normal […]
I love travel. Didn’t do much of traveling growing up. However, once I had a job I hit the trails at full speed. I believe in the power of travel and thus have exposed my son to different states and countries at a very early age. He has […]
