You are strong and beautiful, you stand tall, are full of surprises and you are famous around the world.

You got me and will remain in my heart forever….

Travel has been one of my most valuable teachers. Rather than sit in a classroom and learn about the world through a someone else’s eyes, I did it through adventures and misadventures, tears and laughter.

The area around the small towns of Dominical and Uvita, on the Pacific coast of southern Costa Rica, is one of my favorite places in the world.

More hotels and restaurants are popping up constantly; …
“Dude, where’s my bra?” I called out to Betty on more than one occasion during our two week road trip around New Zealand.
