The Travel Spark

Sometimes a great deal can be the impetus for a trip.  But more often it is —

Magic

Romance

Serendipity

I’ll read a book

Or hear a story

See a photo

Watch a movie

And I become obsessed.  I want to go there.  I want to do that.  I want to see, smell, hear and experience that world. 

And so I start to scratch that itch and go down rabbit trails.  What would it look like to –

Visit the Field of Blackbirds in Kosovo

Stay at a Caravanserai in Azerbaijan

Sleep in a cave hotel

Dive through and fly over a blue hole

Experience the winds of Sumatra

Stand at the Southernmost point in Africa looking at the ocean

Witness the first steps of a turtle’s journey from a deserted island

And that is the seed. 

And from there a trip is born.
