About me
I started traveling solo full-time in August 2016, soon after retiring from a career in journalism on the Big Island of Hawaii. In June 2021, following a pandemic sabbatical in Hawaii and Mexico, I was vaccinated and resumed traveling with a three-month stay in Istanbul, followed by a trip to Tbilisi, Georgia, and Yerevan, Armenia. This year I've stepped up my usual pace of travel and have been through Egypt, Zimbabwe, Zambia, India and Nepal through May. Life is good; traveling's the best!QA
