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.

Pardon me, do you speak English?

I have decided that some of us are blessed by living in a varied culture. In California - in my city - you hear Spanish spoken, along with Russian, Hindi, Parse, etc.  You do not need to know the language, you get used to not knowing everything. When needed, almost everyone speaks English. It is the same when we travel abroad. We don't understand folks, but it doesn't worry us. The only place we have had problems is in Scotland where they claim to speak English and expect us to understand them.
