November 2011, I traveled to Nicaragua as a volunteer with Habitat for Humanity's Global Village program. Learn more
The above are just a few pictures of my friends and places that I have taken as I have traveled a small corner of the world we live in.
I'm not a travel agent and do not have my own business, but I like to assist others in making travel plans or helping them decide where in the world to go. I plan our trips, by scouring brochures or searching on the Internet.
My original goal was to visit 100 countries. On January 9, 2009 I made this goal when I stepped on the Antarctic Peninsula. I guess I now need to up my goal to 150 200 250 275. I track my countries based on the Traveler's Century Club listing. The Traveler's Century Club is pretty liberal in what counts (for example Alaska and Hawaii count as they are more than 50 miles from the continental USA), which is OK, if you are trying to reach 100. Here is my Country List.
Besides the Traveler Century Club list, I discovered a new country location list, with a GREAT App! Check out Most Traveled People. Their list covers 1,500 places. To date I am at 530. I'll chase the 330 TCC places, but I'm not chasing 1,500. I'm too old.
Please browse my site and tell me what you think. If you would like help finding a unique vacation I would love to help you.
