Spring is here and I am all about it! After our whirlwind Africa tour, we focused on reconnecting with friends close and afar. This included picking up some new hobbies like studying for our private pilots license. Let me tell you, I have a whole new respect for pilots, and the amount of information they […]
Our “One Night in Bangkok” (exotic 80’s song, written by ABBA) was actually three nights of eating, drinking and watching the Lady Boys perform live.

Imagine a country with wholesome natural beauty, lots of castles, charming town centers, and you have Slovenia. A seven hour drive and well worth the trip.
