When I was 12 and in grade 7 in Adelaide, S.A., Australia, I quit school.  My mom asked what I was going to do.  I told her that I was going to travel around the Outback with my dad and write magazine articles.  She sent me back to school.  But the idea never left me, so finally, here I am, almost 40 years later-writing about my trips and what travel has taught me.  Thanks for joining my journey. 🙂

PS: I am Canadian and grew up in Vancouver, but my two years in Australia were very formative.
