Manchu Picchu is a place I have been drawn too since I read Shirley MacLaine’s book “Out on a Limb” in 1983. And with all the traveling I do, it was only August of 2011 that the opportunity presented itself in such a way that I simply could not ignore it. I was in Bali [...]
In the late 90′s we were living in England, Germany and Turkey, and traveling around to other countries like Luxemborg, Belgium, Holland, France. I regret that at that time we didn’t have a digital camera so while I have my own personal photos, I have nothing digital to share except for Turkey. While in England [...]
Turkey is located in Western Asia.

Like most of Asia, Turkey has changed a lot in the last ten years. When we lived there [...]

Visiting Singapore is like visiting a city in the US, only cleaner. It is sophisticated, And each year we return it seems they continue to dream up ways to [...]
Our first trip to Vietnam in 2005 wasn’t very long. We were in Bali and our Visa’s were expiring. Roger found a special to Hanoi for only about $60.00 each so we booked it. We ending up really enjoying our time in Hanoi, and really loved Hoi An, a town further south. So we decided [...]
As you can probably tell by now, travel has always been an important part of my life. But it was impossible to do more than take a Holiday when building a career, and raising my daughter. But all that changed in 1992 when I married Roger. With our children grown, we could indulge our love [...]
Phnom Penh, along with Siem Reap and Sihanoukville, are significant global and domestic tourist destinations for Cambodia. We had been wanting to visit but each year were told by everyone that it was very dangerous, like the wild wild west. And it was only in 1979 that the Khumer Rouge were driven out of by [...]
