Finding Victoria. Many countries across the globe have honoured Her Majesty Queen Victoria and the Commonwealth. On my travels I will keep my eye out for various namesakes.

I am currently working in Tokyo and so I travel pretty much in Japan. Linking up to my blog instead.

A Quick trip to Kauai - Hawaii

i am on vacation from OIF and I am having a wonderful time!

I headed out early today and bought a subway pass. I was going to brave the Japanese subway system by myself. My first target was the Nankou Bird Sanctuary only one stop away.

I’ve traveled extensively prior to 2006, yet never packed a camera (one more thing to worry about).
