Bio
For most of my life, travel has been my primary interest when I wasn't working as a teacher, counsellor, and entrepreneur. After I decided to retire from full time work, travelling became my main goal which lead to starting a blog about the wonderful places I visited. It was like a dream come true. Meeting new people, experiencing new cultures, and learning, not just about myself, but how the world works, was exciting but also a fantastic lesson in self growth. I was even able to build up a small business importing clothing and accessories from the countries I visited. The profit from that helped me to keep on travelling for almost twelve years. Then in March of this year COVID-19 arrived and my world changed. Now I am reinventing my world as so many of us must do. I am facing the reality that there may be little if any travel in the future as I do not expect that we can go back to the old normal. For some time I knew we had to change our old world and now we are in the midst of that change. I can already see where my road is going. I will not be hopping on a plane or making plans for my next adventure in another country. Instead I will be staying in my home province of Nova Scotia in Canada where I will limit my travel to rediscovering my home territory. I am fortunate to live in one of the most beautiful places in the world so I know I'll have much to explore. I am grateful I had the opportunity to do what I've done and will look forward to whatever the emerging new world has to offer. None of it will be easy, but it can always be rewarding.
