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.

Travel Grief

This is the roadway leadign away from Mont Saint Michel, France.

Sorry to leave.

    There is often a feeling loss or grief as we must say good-bye to a favorite place. For me there has been grief in having to cancel a trip or two. We planned to go to China - Covid hit. Then we switched to Panama rain forest - nope. The pandemic was still on. How about Tuscany and Paris? Well, I must have someone take my place my legs cannot make it. Alright then we arrange for a trip to Costa Rica - heart condition sent me to hospital. I had to fight to get y travel insurance back. This is all in around four years and I am still feeling the effects of NOT going where I want. My friends have shared their own sense of loss when they must cancel a trip. Not fun being a traveler and not being able to travel.
