Profile
Are you like me? Do you read about a place and say "I've got to go THERE sooon"??? So do I. It's a curse, and a blessing..... This site helps me realize how much I've seen, and how much more I need to explore.

Though I've been contributing to virtualtourist.com for 8 years now, and will likely keep my focus on writing travel tips there.... I've just done so much there. So far, I've traveled to 278 Cities in 99 Countries

But TravBuddy compliments the VirtualTourist Website, so I'll keep both maintained for now. This looks like a decent site, especially for uploading photos. I really like the travel map and the chronological blog design. Thanks TravBuddy!

Maryland, My Maryland
Jan 30, 2000 – Mar 08, 2009
Well, I really can't write about all these other places in the world without promoting MY fine state can I? Baltimore: "Charm City' is a secret gem of a place to visit, and to live. It was crap in the 1970's, but has risen above to become a great destination. Since I fly, I'll show you much of the state from the air AND the ground. Enjoy. Travelogue in-progess.
