Does this quote describe you?

"Once the travel bug bites there is no known antidote, and I know that I shall be happily infected until the end of my life."
Michael Palin

Yes, I can see myself in that description..As a matter of fact,I started thinking about going and exploring different places at a very early age.
When I was 5 if you ever asked me what I want to be when I grew up, my answer was always the same: I want to be an Explorer..

Yes, that's both me and my husband. Good thing we both love to travel or our marriage would not have lasted soon to be 37 years! Please note - we were maried when we were both just babies!

I used to say the same thing, kismetchimera! Either that or an "airline stewardess" - the old name for a flight attendant. I ended up being neither, but I love to travel!

I wanted to be a Stewardess also Marianna and I was ready to spend some time in England to practice my English, but it wasn't meant to be..
Two months before my plans I met my American's DH while I was in vacation in Frankfurt and 6 weeks later, at the tender age of 20 ,we were married in Rome.
Anyway, I fulfilled some of my dreams because DH was in the AF and we lived in various parts of the world..We are still married and have 3 beautiful grandkids, the older is now 15 and she became my traveling companion..
Life is so Unpredictable..
