I never left the state of Colorado until I was around 19 years old, and then it was to Kansas, the state to the East of Colorado. I grew up on a small farm/ranch in Colorado, and my big dream was to go to Disney Land. That particular destination is now my least favorite; I much prefer natural wonders like Grand Canyon, Yellowstone and Mesa Verde.
When I met my husband, he wanted to travel, and that’s when it all began. Unlike a lot of people, I never really said, “I want to travel the world.”
I’m glad I have. My husband has taken me to numerous states (in all meanings of the word), countries including Egypt, France (and all over Europe), Russia (okay, it was included in the cruise), Ireland, England, Scotland, Mexico (that’s as far south as I got), and many more places that I have to look at pictures to remember.
I love that he introduced me to travel; it has broadened my views of other people and cultures, introduced me to new foods, new animals, new people.
Can’t wait for June–Japan. Excuse my “humble brag.”
