I put travel pretty high on my list of favorite activities. I don't travel for shopping, or for thrilling once-in-a lifetime moments, but more to see how people live their day to day lives. I like staying a while in one place and getting to know people.
I've been lucky enough to travel to many, many countries. I hope to continue to do more travel as I go into retirement.Interests
