"Welcome to My Travels!" upesnlwc's Profile


Welcome

Hope you enjoy my advice. If you have any questions that i didn't answer on my page, feel free to email me.

About me

I currently live in Richmond Virginia and work as a Sr. Buyer for the nation's largest retailer of used automobiles.

My Travels

WhileI am probably not the most traveled person on VT, I love to go to new places, make friends wherever my travels take me, eat and drink the local fare, and make new stories and memories.

My Austria and Germany pages are the result of a 10 day trip with Fraternity brothers what at Longwood University in Virginia. We traveled to several small towns, along with a few touristy spots. Met many friendly locals who were able to share their love of the contry with a couple American Kids! The trip was worth the 2 years it took me to pay off that Credit Card.

I grew up in Williamsburg, Virginia (probably the most informative pages) and subsequently have a lot of knowledge of the area. If you need information that you can't find anywhere else, please feel free to email me. I love my hometown, and would love for even more people to find this time capsule of a place.

I have traveled to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic a couple times over the years and can help provide information on a couple of resorts that we visited and the excursions that we took.

UPCOMING TRAVELS:
Next year, My wife and I plan on making a trip to Italy. Our travels will most likely take us to the Castelli Romani, Rome, Florence, and Naples. Although the trip is close to a year away, I can barely contain my excitement for October 2011 to finally arrive!

Really anything, but lately it's been, that's right, 80's hair bands...Kiss, Styx, Journey, etc...

You can also find me listening to Classic Rock, like CCR or Skynard...

Sometimes, I listen to more recent stuff, Dave Matthews and such...

Sometimes you will even catch me listening to bluegrass like Bella Fleck...

I guess it's kinda hit or miss :)
