About me
I love travelling. I’ve been across Canada. I’ve travelled to many states in the US, Mexico City, Cancun, The Grenadines, St. Lucia, Dominican Republic. I loved New Zealand and Australia. (Very easy)
Six months backpacking Uganda, Tanzania, China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Thailand on my own 2005-06.
Recently, 2010, did two weeks camping on Vancouver Island….what a wonderful time with a window of sunshine for two weeks in May!
Curently, I am working on a trip to Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco starting in Jan 2011.
