Hey Randy,
Saw your challenge and had to rise to the occasion. I've been traveling one week a month for about 3 years. I'm a writer, self-employed, and well supported by my hubby, so taking time away is no big deal. I've been traveling to keep busy since the death of our son, and while waiting to adopt. I have a passport, a laptop, blackberry and comfortable shoes.
My cousin and I almost made Amazing Race but she went and got pregnant. If the baby hadn't turned out to be the most adored child alive, I'd still be pissed off at her. Since then she's popped out 2 more kids, so I doubt we'll ever parasail over the Great Wall while wearing bikinis on CBS. Not that anyone would want to see that.
Any passenger on CO can tell you I'm friendly and easy to get along with. I have been just about everywhere with the exception of the 4 A's- Australia, Antarctica, Asia and Africa. My dream trip would be to Greece- a trip I missed when I broke a foot in Rome and had to fly home. Of course, I was 19 then, young and stupid.
If you can't tell, I'm a woman. I get along with either gender, sexual orientation and race. I would love to do this for myself, to accomplish something truly "amazing". Besides, we haven't been chosen by any birthmother in 3 years and our adoption worker said we need to spice up our profile. A trip like this would definitely do that.
Thanks for reading this- I was planning a trip to Aruba in March but that can be changed. Oh, I live in the Detroit suburbs so getting to NY takes only an hour via plane.
Good Luck!
Jen Nelson
