Preface
Following retirement in 2002, my curiosity to travel to places unknown to me intensified. My lifelong interest turned into a passion, and my motto became “The more I see, the more I want to see.” The compelling images and memories of tours which began with Cuba, India, and Nepal inspired further journeys, keeping me on the road ever since…
Over a period of eight years, I traveled to 33 countries in four continents. The desire to share my discoveries with friends began with short field notes and quickly evolved into longer articles, originally published online. The accumulation of over 80 articles, along with the enthusiastic response of readers, led to my decision to publish my travel writings as a legacy book for my grandchildren, and at the same time open a window for others onto different cultures in a fast-changing world.
