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.

Portadella Street Market, London
I walked up to an stall full of antiques and collectibles and picked up a toy "Dinky" car. The seller smiled and asked if I was a collector. I was as a kid and still have most of them. We had a nice talk and then I went along to look at the vegetables. Thousands of miles spanned by a common interest. I choose one thing to look for on a trip --hoping not to find it-- so I can meet people.
