Wherever the Winds Take Me

I absolutley LOVE traveling. I have been blessed with the opportunity to explore many different wonderful places, cultures, and fantastic people. Here are some of the places I'v visited in the past. Every place I have been, I have learned something new about life, met an intriguing person that I never wanted to forget, ate something delicious but most importantly, learned something about myself.

HAWAII

 

The island of Oahu is full of history and culture. I fell in love with the sunsets and the beaches!

 

Goofing around in Pearl Harbor






Hello Kitty souvenirs and I also tried my first Hawaiian shaved ice. It was perfect!









You can't help but get lost in the beauty of the sunsets...




PARIS

Who doesn't leave their heart in Paris?

 

The Arc d' Triomphe and the palace of Versailles. The cielings are SPECTACULAR
 

Notre Dame and all its splendor...



Behind Notre Dame is a little shop with my name!




I won't tell you that the pastries are simply delicious. You'll have to go to Paris and try them yourself!





AUSTIN,TEXAS
Travelling in Texas is fun too! Especially when you jet ski for the very first time!!! I was jumping waves like a pro!!! (in my humble opinion)



"I see my path, but I don't know where it leads. Not knowing where I'm going is what inspires me to travel it"

PUERTO RICO
La isla del Encanto, The island of Enchantment

 

The sun and the beach were wonderful!!!



Miss Le Rich at the beach is a very happy girl!

NEW YORK
The city that doesn't sleep..so I didn't sleep either !


The city is also a place that excites me because of all the museums and historical places to visit.






"We must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths of the wilderness and travels and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey"
~ J.H. Franklin

Puerto la Cruz, Venezuela

I also left part of my heart in South America.... and I promised I'd return to pick up the rest!




Have I told you I have a huge crush on sunsets?



I was SO lucky enough to be able to visit a Chocolate museum and I bought some to eat all by myself. It was delicious! Ok, maybe I shared a little.

DISNEY WORLD, FLORIDA
I felt like a little girl all over again!

 


"My travels le me where I am today. Sometimes these steps have felt painful, difficult, but led me to greater happiness and opportunities"
~ Diana Ross

COCHABAMBA, BOLIVIA



My latest and greatest adventure. I said I would return to South America didn't I? Problem is I left my heart in the Bolivian mountains.... I guess I have to return and pick up the pieces pretty soon ;)





My wonderful childhood friend Pamela invited me to Bolivia and took me around to the fantastic sights of her beautiful country.

Looking back and remembering the places I’ve been and people I have met in my travels brings me this ardent desire to continue discovering because the world is a beautiful place and life is too short to stay in the same place. I have made a promise to myself that I will try to go someplace every year.
