1. Tell us a bit about yourself

I am a former retail store manager who after 15 years, gave up my career to embark on a new life path which included starting my travel and lifestyle blog called Life Without A Roadmap .  Why Life Without A Roadmap ?  Well, after living the life that everyone else expected me to live, I decided that I needed to start living the life that I wanted which is why I changed careers.   I love nature, the ocean, beaches, and SCUBA diving and enjoy sharing those loves with my readers.

2. What is your earliest travel memory?

When I was 12, I took my first plane trip to Colorado to spend the summer with my aunts and cousins.

Boston

3. Where was the last place you travelled to?

Curacao

4. What was the best thing you did there?

We took a boat charter to an uninhabited island.

5. What was your best holiday ever? Why?

A trip to Laughlin, Nevada, with my parents and oldest brother.  That was the last vacation that we took together before my parents died.

6. What is your favourite travel destination?

Anywhere with a beach and beautiful water.

7. What must one do there?

Kick off your shoes, put your toes in the sand and take in the sounds and sights.

8. Who is your favourite travel companion/s?

My husband.

9. Name one item you must have when travelling.

Be patient.  Flights get delayed, lines get long.  Keep your eyes on the prize which is the destination and everything else will be nothing more than a memory.

Tahiti
