Globetrotting Diaries

The Globetrotting Diaries: First Time’s the Charm at Sabi Sabi

Firstly, I feel like I need to give some background info. This was my first time to Africa. It had been on my to do list for a long time and given the opportunity to extend after the Indaba Tourism Conference in April, we jumped at the chance. The itinerary was amazing and I wanted […]

The Globetrotting Diaries: Beautiful Music in a Tahitian Cafe

When I travel, I look for local experiences to enhance my trip by learning about the locals and their culture. I think local experiences add authenticity, and are great learning experiences that I keep with me for the rest of my life. In December 2018, I got to go to French Polynesia. The first stop […]

The Globetrotting Diaries: Floating on the Dead Sea in Israel

In 2012, I had a wonderful opportunity to travel to Israel. One of the do-not-miss things in this beautiful country is to visit, and float in, the Dead Sea. Because of where it is located in the country, the tours usually start early leaving Jerusalem. The first stop is to the fortress of Masada and […]

Beach at Antalya, Turkey

The Globetrotting Diaries: A Beach Escape in Turkey

When you think about Turkey, likely the first things that will come to your mind are its long history, religious culture, and tasty baklava. Of course, it’s also a country that lies on two continents simultaneously, which I think is probably most impressive of all. The country is also one of the best beach and […]

The Globetrotting Diaries: Staying on a Houseboat on the Kerala Backwaters

Both my trips to India were unique and unforgettable. The first of these wonderful experiences was when my friend and I decided to go to the Osho Center in Pune for a 10 day meditation. This spiritual experience left a deep impression on me and I knew I had to return to India again.  Before […]

The Globetrotting Diaries: Fire, Ice, and Everything in Between in Iceland

Iceland is one of the most picturesque and wonderful places I have ever visited. In 2013, I went to see the Ben Stiller remake of the classic 1947 Danny Kaye comedy (and adaptation of the 1939 short-story) The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Walter spends his life daydreaming about the big adventures he might one […]

Machu Picchu.

The Globetrotting Diaries: Accomplishing Two Goals on Machu Picchu

When I climbed Machu Picchu, I accomplished two goals, although perhaps one was not as planned. This is my story of that fateful climb. Step by step, breath by breath, slowly I climb to the summit of Machu Picchu, an ambition from childhood, never thought to be realized in my 70th year of life. Cautiously […]

The Globetrotting Diaries: An Angry Momma Hippo on the Zambezi

I was in Zambia on my first African FAM with Goway and I thought I had won the jackpot. Unbeknownst to me at this stage, this would become one of many amazing trips I have had the honour of being sent on by working for Goway. Our day started out as the sun was just coming […]

The Globetrotting Diaries: Spending a Summer on Santorini

I have many favourite travel memories from Greece as when I was 23 I ended up working on the island of Santorini for the summer. I had planned to live abroad in England, but decided to vacation in Greece before heading to the grey skies of London. After spotting “English-speaking staff wanted” signs around Santorini […]

The Globetrotting Diaries: Experiencing Pure Luxury in the Islands of Tahiti

The Islands of Tahiti are the epitome of romance and luxury travel. I was fortunate enough to be able to travel to these island paradises and experience the luxury—the romance would have to wait for another time as I was travelling to French Polynesia for a work trip and to attend a conference without my […]
