About Me

NOMADIC LIFESTYLE, EARTH, United States
After getting my first passport in 2006 and traveling to climb Kilimanjaro in Tanzania my life changed. I began the process of getting rid of all my possessions and traveling the world. Traveling to over 125 countries and all 7 continents, hostels have been my home. This "new life" has taught me what is important and it was NOT accumulating money or possessions. Traveling is the best education. I hope my blog will encourage others to travel. My World Tattoo was a way for me to express my PASSION FOR TRAVEL.

PORTUGAL, Porto, Sao Bento Train Station

July 26, 2019

After well deserved sleep from late flight, I immediately went to Sao Bento train station with its beautiful ornate tiles.










SPAIN, Valencia

July  22-25th, 2019

After Avignon and Barcelona I flew to Valencia, Spain. My first time here. I have enjoyed it and LOVE The River Hostel. Great Location, good vibe and comfortable beds.


















SPAIN, Barcelona, Temple of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

July 20, 2019

Finally made it. Have been in Barcelona 5-6 times but thought Tibidado Mountain was too difficult to get to. Metro, 15 minute walk and funicular was all it took.











FRANCE, Avignon, lavender fields

July 16, 2019

Reason I came to AVIGNON, FRANCE was to see the Lavender fields. Did a 1/2 day tour to Sault to visit the Lavender fields and was not disappointed. Love the smell. Found out there are Lavender fields and Lavindin Fields (a hybrid used for massage oils and insect repellent). Actually Lavindin in the more purple in color.









FRANCE, Avignon

July 16, 2018

Visited AVIGNON after 4 days in Paris to visit the Lavender Fields in bloom. Fortunate that the Lavender Festival was going on.








ITALY, Pompeii ruins

July 5, 2019

My ITALY GROUP took the high speed train to Naples and then connected to Circumventa for remaining 40 minutes to Pompeii. Ironically I have traveled by Pompeii many times on way to Amalfi Coast but never had desire to visit.
