After 3 nights in Rangiroa, we were off to the tiny airport for our 45 minute flight over to Fakarava. This was such a tiny airport when we got off the plane, they ushered us out to the street to wait for departing passengers to load plane and then our bags came off. Then […]
After almost a year and a half of planning an epic scuba diving trip to French Polynesia…it finally arrived. Crazy this trip was in the works in summer of 2020 as Covid was starting to get better and a group of us planned to go in November 2020. As the trip was all planned and […]
I have a time share in Maui and go most years, I get lots of questions on where to go, where to eat and drink and other things. So I finally put this together as my recommendations and keep updating each trip. This was last updated in March 2021. Maui-Recommendations 3.28.2021 – guide to print […]
In the middle of Covid 2020….I was able to escape down to Turks and Caicos and never felt safer. This was one of the few places Americans can travel to with additional requirements (PCR negative test and heightened travel insurance including medical evacuation coverage).

Portugal has always been on my list to visit and we headed off for a 10 day adventure. Portugal will be my 95th country I’ve visited and I’m excited as the 4 of us have never been to Portugal so it will be fun to explore together. The unfortunate journey getting there… As with […]
So I’m a bit late posting this from the trip my dad and I took in March…but here goes. As I wanted the only non-stop flight to Cairns, I used miles and got my dad and I business class seats for our flight north and had to capture the moment for him. […]
I decided I needed to take a last minute trip somewhere and wanted to go further away from California. I was open to destinations and after looking at cheap airfares, friends to travel with or visit and other fun travel options, I ended on returning to Australia. While I say returning, I was just in […]
I missed posting some of my trips in the past couple years…so with extra time during the Covid lockdown, I’m slowly starting to get them finalized and posted. So maybe we can all enjoy a little more travel fun and look forward to some new places when safe to openly travel again. Enjoy a blast […]
