Travel pages STILL growing little by little! | A plane at the Munich airport, 2002 |
I love to travel and I've been to many countries & towns as I started travelling with my family when I was a kid. Now it's been 8-9 years since I started traveling on my own and visiting friends around the world, which I enjoy a lot..... and I hope to keep on visiting many new places in the years to come. I studied International Relations and speak several languages, so I also love to meet people from other countries who come to mine and to practice my skills whenever I get to travel abroad, besides of learning other new things, of course!
My pages include comments about my trips and as many tips as I've been able to gather, as well as photos taken by me or my family/friends (most of them) and some that I've borrowed from public websites.... I hope all this can help someone during their trips! I'm continuosly updating them, although I don't get the chance to make long trips to far away places as often as I would like to (sniff!!), but I'm doing my best to include as much useful information as possible!
The last trip I made (Feb 2009) was a short one and within my country; my sweetie and I visited one of my favorite cities: Morelia, and we visited the Monarch Butterfly sanctuary as well (pages are still in progress!). Before that, my last major trip (2007) was a wonderful tour around Europe (including Sweden, Finland, Poland, Czech Republic, France and Italy), I already started and will continue posting my tips and pictures little by little, please check back for more info! Hope you will find something useful for your future trips, so you can enjoy them as much as I enjoyed mine! Right after I came back from Europe my boyfriend and I spent 3 days in San Miguel de Allende, a +/- 3-hour drive from Mexico City and a very nice weekend destination (a foreign tourist favorite, in fact). I haven't posted much about it but I will as soon as I can..... I'm slow, I know...... bear with me! ;)
In 2006 I went to a very nice and dear destination to me within Mexico: Puerto Vallarta, a superb beach town in my country!!! Lovely town, great weather, a wonderful coastal destination for a great vacation! It was 8 years before I could go back to this place but I absolutely loved it and can't wait to be back yet again!! I am slowly building my Vallarta page as well so please come back........
Then back in 2005 my trips included a long journey around northern USA and south eastern Canada, then a 5-day trip to Acapulco, the closest beach destination we have from Mexico City, and which I'm sure you've heard about many times... So I'm updating that page now, too! Hope you find useful stuff there!
Previously - in 2002 - I spent a month in Europe (visiting Finland, France, Germany and Spain) and before that I lived a whole month in Rome in 2000. The previous years I traveled extensively with my family to several destinations in Europe, USA, the Caribbean and Central America. My future dream destinations are: Santorini in Greece, Egypt, India, Buenos Aires in Argentina, Australia (where my brother lives) and New Zealand (where some dear ex coworkers live), Cuba (if Fidel doesn't die soon! LOL).... and who knows what else I can think of later on!
The whole VT site is cool, enjoy it!

| And one more year on VT...!!!!! |
|  | 9 years as a VT member and counting...! I remember when I first found this place thanks to an old friend (an inactive VT member by now)....... I didn't like it!!! And I thought it was useless and a waste of time to browse the tips and more so to post them and scan pictures to upload them here, not to mention that I thought it was a bit too personal to post all that traveling information about your private trips. Well, that has changed a lot ever since, as you may see! I love this site, have found a lot of useful info here, have shared a good deal of info myself (and have used the site as a sort of "travel journal" as well), and have met wonderful people thanks to VT. So I'm not planning to leave anytime soon!!! |
