                                              E C U A D O R                         South America's (Ecuador) My friend Sylvia who I worked with in New York City was from Ecuador. She often spoke of her native country and how incredibly beautiful it was. After spending a few weeks in bio diverse Ecuador I fell in love with the country and thank my friend Sylvia for encouraging me to visit Ecuador.

Mega diverse ECUADOR rewards tourists with scenery that's absolutely priceless. The Galapagos Islands provide everyone with a  "WOW" experience. Formed over 5 million years ago by volcanic eruptions the Galapagos Islands offe...

PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND (PEI, for short) ENCHANTING PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND When I was 13 years old my mother introduced me to the book "Anne of Green Gables." I read it from cover to cover five times and still have a vivid memory of Anne with her red braids holding a travel bag on the book cover. An international favorite book! Seventeen years later when I was 30 my boyfriend took me to PEI (Prince Edward Island) for a week in early July. This majestic island  captured my heart as it did the readers of "Anne of Green Gables." Prince Edward Island really is a special place. The summer months are an ideal time to visit Prince Edward Island for a number of reasons: 1) The days are long and warm.  2) The whole island is lush and verdant with an orange hue of potato patches scattered through the open fields.  3) The beaches are lovely and the Atlantic Ocean waters are warm enough for a swim.  4) There's some great places to camp and hike. ...

I hope all of you have a wonderful new year of 2013 filled with health and happiness. Yesterday I went cross country skiing in a lovely park in East Dearborn, Michigan and as I glided through the snow I couldn't help but think about the province of Quebec in Canada which at this time of year is a winter wonderland.  French speaking Quebec has a European feel to it. This is where Canadians engage in French as they indulge in their freshly made croissants, marvel at their magnificent cities and ski to their hearts content.  Bonjour Quebec! When I l...
