Onboard Bernina Express, 50th Birthday
I have always enjoyed traveling. Even as a young boy I remember the wonderful family vacations we took across America. It wasn't until I had the opportunity to travel some that I started to make traveling a priority for me and my family. Visiting new places and experiencing new cultures and people has given a better perspective of the world.
A few of my favorites
One thing I really enjoy about traveling is the planning process for putting together a trip itinerary. I love discovering and learning about new places and cultures. As soon as I identify a country or place I want to visit, I begin to gather as many ideas as I can of places and things to see. And while I would love to see and experience everything, I also enjoy the process of prioritizing the options into an itinerary that is manageable and that will have the greatest impact on me and those I am traveling with. Every trip comes with regrets of missed places or opportunities, but I remind myself that if I had taken time to do the thing I regretted missing I would have missed something else. Ultimately, these regrets serve as a positive driver for returning to those most favorite places.
The Earth has 510 million square kilometers to EXPLORE,
one-third Land, two-thirds Water
WHERE do you want to go?
This was a fun and unique way to identify the vast opportunities to EXPLORE all that exist on EARTH. The website is organized into 15 World Regions, that are then further seperated into other sub-regions or areas. In all there are almost 250 countries or territories included in the United Nations official listing. While not feasible to visit the majority of these countries in a lifetime, it is possible to research and see images of the unique beauty that every country contains. I hope this website contributes to this travel knowledge base that all can enjoy, dream and plan for, and then: Get Traveling™
