In addition to sharing what to do, where to go, and what to eat in traveling, I like to delve deeper and share a little of the history, culture, economy, education, and social issues. Read about local delicacies around the world, sightseeing and activities you shouldn’t miss, best time to visit, and just as important the history and culture.

My travel blog is highlighted by a national organization and some of my stories are found in other publications. Click above on “ABOUT” to see these.
