Speaking of Travel

Each week on Speaking of Travel, I share my guests’ unique travel experiences that are inspiring, uplifting, enriching and informative.

Maya Angelou said, “Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea if we try and understand each other, we may become friends.”

Twenty years ago, if you had told me I would be taking an overnight ferry to Croatia, or walking through the Casbah in Morocco, I would have laughed. In fact, the old me was far from being an adventurer. But travel changes you.

Sometimes, when the timing is right, when the events line up in just the right way, you can recognize the moment that the change happens. Sometimes it can be profound – you can find a life’s purpose in the interaction with a young child with no shoes in a market in Cuba. Sometimes it’s small, like discovering you love risotto and are inspired to learn how to make it.

Sit back and be carried away to places from around the world and right here in our own backyard!
