Hello world!

I never thought hopping on a plane was anything special.

Having grown up with the military, I was used to moving around every few years to a new assignment with my family. Likewise I was no stranger to driving across the Mississippi River to visit relatives, or crossing an ocean to rejoin the mainland when our station was up. While it astounded many of my classmates and friends that I could fall asleep on planes sometimes before takeoff, I was astounded some had never boarded a single aircraft, let alone left their childhood neighborhood.

This blog is for those who are interested in seeing and ultimately experiencing the world. You will find posts of vignettes, travel tips, and snapshots of all that is fine and fubar between my sisters and I traipsing the globe. But more than anything, I hope you likewise catch the bug and follow in our trekking footsteps.

Travel is something anyone can do. So believe me when I say that if I can do it, you can, too.
