About

At the mercy of my outgoing children's social lives and husband’s busy schedule. Aussiedoodle and Greyhound Mom. West Texas-based, but get me out of the desert as much as possible!

Home airports

MAF and DFW.

My travel style

I'm like two sides of a coin, I'm there to make memories and find adventure - give me a couple excursions! But the remainder of the time you'll find me with a book or napping by a beautiful pool. You'll find me often traveling with my huge immediately family - 8 of us now - but this is called a "family trip" - which is packed full of making memories. If I'm "vacationing" - I'm away with my husband or a friend sans children recovering from the pace of normal day-to-day life.

One thing I can't travel without...

A neck pillow and light blanket.

Two truths, one lie:

  1. I yakked down the side of a mountain in Israel.

  2. I swam with a whale-shark in the Maldives.

  3. Been bitten by a crab in Florida.
