All the enormous challenge of dealing with details, trying to get a straight answer that was confirmed by at least one other person, regulations changing three times the last six days before my trip….one important detail remains! I am NOW in Bali and all of that, the long hours, phone calls and

Wow…it has been a while since I’ve traveled!! After the ton of details I had to deal with up to the last minute, I was elated to finally being on the shuttle. However, it’s been so long since I traveled, I am learning all over how to deal with things. What was second nature…isn’t or

Finally, next Adventure!

Yucatan Photo Editing
This is not normally what people think of first about the Yucatan. More tha likely, people think of beaches. However, this is the precise reason I came here, to the village of Valladolid. When I returned from Costa Rica, I felt a little disappointed and disconnected. Once home, I realized it is a “tourist” culture

Semana Santa Costa Rica
Semana Santa, Holy Week! Hoardes of people started arriving yesterday. Every hotel is full. Backpackers caught by surprise wandered the streets hopeful. Some moved on. Others got lucky. My friend from Italy finally stopped searching on the internet and went walking. Over an hour later, they came home excited. No hotel room but an apartment

Costa Rica, Osa Peninsula
This image shows how I felt putting together a photo trip to Costa Rica. I was taking a lot of YouTube classes learning to use my camera better. And, I took my camera out every time I went somewhere to practice. So I was working on two projects simultaneously. However, after 40 years of travel,

Two travel options
PLAN!!! In my experience, I find travelers leaning toward one style of travel or the other. One style is to plan. I mean, a rigid plan followed to the detail. Little flexibility. Plan! Know where you are going, what your are doing next, having transportation and details all arranged. I don’t think or flow like

Preference: Immersion is My travel style
My travel preference: I love immersing myself in local culture! I’m not big on cities but they are an essential part of travel. They provide the “travel hub” where lowest-priced flights can be found. Places like Phenom Penh house museums of artifacts from Angkor Wat giving a more complete image of life there. Food carts

Which part of Normal?
A little over a year ago, I was walking through villages in Myanmar. No mobile phones. People walked slowly and talked to each other. Food was prepared slowly and deliciously. A smile given was returned a thousand fold. That was “normal” there. One word “shocker”….BUSY! Normal here? When I returned home after nearly seven months

Kindness and service!
Young girl in Sri Lanka so enthusiastic to wish me a good morning as she prepared for school! A clip toward the ending of a newscast caught my eye. A mail carrier delivering mail noticed papers in an elderly ladies drive. It made him think, “if she can’t get out to pick up her papers,

Unconditional or under these conditions?
Your choice….choose wisely! After my birthday, I made this short video. What inspired me was the comments I received about having a Happy Birthday…”under these conditions”. What struck me is this: I do my best to live well, be happy, choose to be peaceful, like being present and aware and appreciate the little things in
