My travel style
You can usually find me on a hiking trail or doing something in nature. But, by evening, I want to relax and be pampered — find me a pool or jacuzzi, a nice class of wine and a gorgeous view.
After the privilege of enjoying over 20 years as a university professor and administrator, I look forward to transforming from travel hobbyist to travel advisor. With even more tools at my fingertips, I am excited to meet new friends and send them on their dream trips.
Favorite hotels
Recently returned from:
Hiking and bird-watching in Scotland (including Shetland) with castle stays.
Hiking and wine-tasting in Portugal (Douro).
Staying in a Kasbah in the Atlas Mountains in Morocco.
Wine-tasting and enjoying food adventures in Napa Valley.
Dreaming of:
Egypt (Cairo, Nile Tour and the Red Sea).
Kyoto, Japan.
Greece (Santorini has its own unique wine region).
Hawai'i (once a year just isn't enough!).
One thing I can't travel without...
Hiking boots (and poles, too).
Two truths, one lie:
I was denied boarding for a flight to Kenya because my visa showed the start / end date on the same day.
I spent an afternoon in Parliament listening to Tony Blair when I joined the wrong queue for the entry to Westminster Abbey.
I fell out of a kayak while entering a sea cave in Sardinia.
