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.

Mont Saint Michel, Normandy, France
This is a view of the Abbey at Mont Saint Michel taken from the rampart. This whole island is considered a holy place and it feels like it. Indeed, it is overrun by tourists, but there are places where you can sneak away (like the ramparts) and feel the temper of the place. When people talk of bucket lists, I think of Mont Saint Michel as it was long on mine from the time I was a little boy and saw a photo of it in National Geographic. It did not disappoint.
