As a blogger, I write about brands, topics, and styles that don’t always appeal to everyone. Heck, nothing I write EVER appeals to everyone; it’s impossible to please all the people all of the time. Believe me, over the past 19 years as a blogger, I have tried to please everyone and failed. And that’s… Continue Reading What is your Why? Turning a Rant into a Resource

This is where they offer a planned trip, domestic or overseas, where they along with followers have a travel experience.
