Welcome to my travel blog. Thus far, I have shared a few of my recent trips, some highlights below :
1) Japan, Sep 2014. With the allure of a very foreign culture to me, non-English speaking, Hiroshima, Tokyo, Shinkansen (bullet trains), Tsukiji fish market, and Sumo wrestling, it was time for a two week break from life and traveled to Japan for the second half of September. Wow, what an amazing place, just loved every minute I spent there exploring.
2) On assignment in Berkeley, CA (Sep 2008 - Apr 2009). I explored the San Francisco Bay area in some detail during the weekends I was there and not working, which was generally every other weekend. I got as far South as Carmel and Big Sur, and as far North as Point Reyes, Sonoma, Napa, St. Helena, and Calistoga.
3) New Zealand and Sydney Australia (Feb 2008)
If you haven't yet traveled very far or wide, as I hadn't prior to my trip to New Zealand in 2008, I highly recommend you just get out there and do it! It is amazing how it can change your perspective. Feel free to shoot me a question if you are thinking of visiting any of the places I have and would like any advice I might have to share.
Happy Travels,
Doug
