Why? (click here)

After a lifetime of travel both personally and professionally, I find that my lifestyle frequently pops up in conversation; especially now, with so many of my cohorts retiring.
Many ask me how I do it.

Some, who are just getting into travel ask, "where do I start?''

Others ask "don't you ever stay home?"

And yet others tell me I should write a blog or advice column.

I've done a lot of writing in the past; books, tabloid columns, websites and blogs.

I do travel! I do it a lot and I think I do it well.

So as a writer and a traveler (and a wannabe photographer) why not write a blog about travel?

It’s a new year and I’m up for a new venture.

I spend a good deal of time taking road trips, sitting in airports, flying on planes and cruising on boats.

Blogging is something I can do from my phone. And, those closest to me know that I am rarely seen without my phone!

Although I am a retired airline analyst, I'll not be reciting rules or regulations; or clarifying any airline or flight operations.

I just want to share how to enjoy the trip; with hints on easy, comfort packing, maybe even a little safety. And some darn good products.

It will be enjoyable, honest and interesting. Not everyone will agree because not everyone travels like me. But there will be insight somewhere, I promise.

So who will love this blog?

Beginning travelers.

Ladies who want to travel in complete comfort.

Ladies who want "tried and true" ideas and products?

Ladies who are 55 plus.

Ladies with an open mind.

All those gals out there with a sense of adventure and above all, a sense of humor.

My hope is that I connect with others.

Where do I see this a year from now?

Well, I'd be happy with 1,000 followers from around the world; connecting with some cool like-minded women.

I foresee a nice spot with welcome advice for ladies who are looking to get-away. A good, fun, informative read; where women gather as long-distant friends, like old-fashioned pen pals.

Why should you check-in monthly to read this?

Because you just never know what I'm going to say or do! I’ll talk about products, places, pictures, food, music, hotels, bars, restaurants, clothes, shoes... it's never ending...

So if you are a fairly free-spirited lady, that's ready to think OF YOURSELF for a change; that someone who just wants to grab a little gusto... then you might want to stop back by.

So, will I see ya later?

if so, Check back here monthly
