With over 25 years in the travel industry I have had many opportunities to travel to wonderful destinations. Europe is probably my favorite, with Italy being number one. Mediterranean Cruising is a great way to visit many countries in a week to ten days. River Cruising is a unique way as well. Small, luxury ships are intimate. Independent travel is also an enlightening experience. Deciphering train/subway schedules in a foreign language is a challenge from which we can all grow. Here is hoping I can share my love of travel with all of you!
