All I have ever wanted to do is travel and see the world. When I was ten years old, people would ask what I wanted to be when i grew up and i would reply "A traveler". Silly, huh? I am now at the point in my life where i can do that. My kids are grown, and I am financially stable enough to travel and see the world. Salut!
