The best adventures are those that contain surprises. There are wonders to be discovered by getting lost in the Highlands of Scotland or on the back roads of New England. There may just be a chance to meet a special character who changes your life. In ancient times these were sometimes known as angels.
WELCOME
This blog is about the adventure of traveling and especially the interesting people that you meet. We will share stories about people and places we have encountered from around the United States, Ireland, Scotland, England, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, France, Canada, Spain, Mexico, The Vatican, The Netherlands, Belgium, Zambia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Liechtenstein, Portugal, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, and more. This is not a travelogue -- we leave that to Rick Steves -- this is a collection of fragments in the journey of life.

The joy of travel
At a function in California, I was having a conversation with a young man from London. He said that he had lived near the Regent Square Tube Station. I told him I hated that station and he agreed. He said he tried to avoid it. We talked about pubs about the British Museum and Bloomsbury. Only because I've been to London a couple of times and each time for a good visit do I know what he was taking about. We are serious when we say that it is more fun to learn a lot about a little than to see a little of a whole lot.
