My Babies

Here was a pic taken in Texas bluebonnets in April 2011 when Anna was almost 3 and Luke was almost 1.

How I Got Bitten by the Travel Bug


I began my travels at about the age of 4. I had the wonderful opportunity to travel every summer with my family. We took a 2-week vacation every summer, by car, to different parts of the US & North America. The summer after my high school graduation, we went to Hawaii, which made the 48th state for me to visit. Somehow we missed Delaware (??) and also Alaska. The picture here is of my whole family. It was rare that we actually got a vacation picture with all four of us in it - usually one was taking the picture!

Another experience that contributed to my passion for travel is how I was exposed to missions and missionary works at a young age. I was involved in a group where we talked and learned alot about mission work in other countries. I would hear all these fascinating things about the people, food, and culture of a place I had never even heard of. It all thrilled me and made me want to visit the whole world!

    Hi! No need to pre-book any train tickets in Italy. Ticket machines have English options. Use cash to save hassle with card. Or go to ticket office. Remember to validate (yellow machines on platforms). They check, and fine if you don't. :-) J
