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.

France declines isolationism


         France has voted 70% to 30% to move away of the isolationism that has crept into some other nations such as Great Britain. They are a beacon (see top photo) of pride in being France, but realize that they are stronger when related to the European Union ( see flag on left in small French Village below). No nation, no matter how big, can go it alone in a world that today is so interrelated by transport and communications. Only the most arrogant of people can believe that it is better to go isolate itself from others.  We each have a great deal to learn from one another.  (Photoss by Mike McLellan)
