Why travel is amazing

Welcome to the world.  There are many reasons why we travel.  Most of us just want to get away from what we call the mundane parts of life to relax and/or have fun somewhere else.  We truly want to just want to be someplace different that doesn’t remind us of work, or responsibilities or the stress of trying to live a life.  We often miss the most important part of why traveling on our time off is so amazing.  

Travel is about dreams.  You know them.  Those dreams of spending days at the beach with a cold beverage on a chaise lounge leaving all worries behind, or maybe it is about gliding over powdery snow with the sun on your face and the trees glistening like diamonds.   It is about living, even for just a moment, your passions.  But even more, it is about connecting.   We connect with nature, people, and culture.  We gain a different perspective on the world around us and what it means to be, well, human.  This blog will explore these themes.  

My hope is that you might find a place that speaks to you and I’ll do my best to help you find places to fuel your passions and that maybe you thought were not reachable.  I have traveled as a solo-female, with my dogs, and even with my board-sports loving husband.  I have a passion for the outdoors, wine, coffee, soccer, culture, and animals, with a special place in my heart for dogs.  I love finding creative ways to incorporate these passions in my travel to connect with the places I go.  I want to share with you how I travel less like a tourist and more like a woman yearning to enrich her life by wanting explore what the world is like around her.  Let the journey begin….
