Traveling has been my passion since my first backpacking trip through Europe over 25 years ago.  There were no set plans, just a eurail pass and a sense of adventure.  Whether it be a relaxing Caribbean cruise or a European destination, I am always looking for a new place to explore, cultures to experience and memories to be made.

I've danced on the beaches of Jamaica to a steel drum band; tasted Puerto Ricos' national drink, the Pina Colada and witnessed the calving glaciers in Alaska.  From a cooking class in Italy to savoring the delicious local cuisine in Thailand I have enjoyed amazing culinary experiences.  Midnight Mass for Orthodox Easter at the National Cathedral in Athens and a random street parade in Vietnam for Lunar New Year have immersed me in new cultures.  I've made connections with locals learning the Tango in Argentina and spending time with local guides in Budapest and touring the temples at Angkor Wat in Cambodia.

There is a big world out there.  Break away from your routine vacations.  Experience new places, try new foods and immerse yourself in new cultures.
