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.

Reasons not to travel

Looking out from the Rock Hotel at the Straights of Gibraltar. Spain to the right, Morocco to the left.

There are many reasons to stay home and not to travel. First, it is expensive; although so is ignorance of life in other parts of the world. But, expense is relative. You don't have to spend buckets to go interesting places. Second, it is dangerous. Well, my county in the US is likely more dangerous. Staying home is not much safer. Third, there is not enough time. I'll guess that you never waste any time at home. Oh, you do? A week in Spain is no waste and pays off in understanding.

Truth: most excuses are lame, unless you are lame and then you still can travel if you plan it.
