We live in California near the Pacific Coast. We have had the opportunity to visit many coastal areas around the world, but none is better than the coast of Oregon. (We have a second place in Portland.) I suspect that it is the rough coastline and the whales. Or, maybe it is the fact that there are fewer people there. It is a rocky coast with some nice places to set up. Not like the coast of California or those along the southern U.S. states with their busy miles of white sand and warmer water. I have always felt that rather than swimming these places in Oregon are best to look at on an unhurried walk and for collecting polished gemstones. This is a place for spending time near the surf and sharing life with the gulls.
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.
