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.

ABOUT TIPPING
We know that it is not common to give tips in certain countries. Even when it is not expected we usually leave something and we also carry small gifts from California to give to special people we meet in Europe. One of our family members says that they used to take cancelled postage stamps from the U.S.A. and give them out and people enjoyed them. I might imagine this at one time, but today we find that 5, 10 and 20 Euro notes get more attention.
