About

My passion for travel stems from my dad driving us all over the country each year, in a Winnebago, for family vacations. Those trips, for me, were always an experience that I love to recall today.

As I got older, I did quite a bit of traveling in my car. Never satisfied to stay in one place, I've lived from one coast to the other and back in this beautiful country of ours, and I still see places and things right in my own backyard that amaze me.
In my travels, I've met so many people who have never left their hometown, and I feel sad for them. There is so much to be learned from travel. So many "Experiences". So many places that are so surreal as to hold a special place in my memories.

Then, at age 42, I went to Everest College to become a certified travel agent. My first job was in corporate travel and for me, it was very exciting to be the person who could fix the travelers issues.
When our economy tanked in 2009, my job went with it. All of the Fortune 500 clients put a halt to all travel. That really hurt the travel industry, but now, the industry has fully rebounded and is steadily growing so I decided that the second half of my life will be spent helping other people to discover the world outside their door, and all the beauty and wonder that it holds. thumbsup
