Hello, my name is Julia and I created this blog to share my passion for immersion travel — mostly because I didn’t find much in this area to use as reference for my own endeavors.

Where are my interests?  Just to name a few…

• Being “Actively Retired”
• Seeker of experiences (vs. taking a photo just to say I’ve been there)
• Developing friendships (even if just for an hour on a train)
• Living as an ExPat
• Volunteering to positively influence the lives of others
• Whitewater rafting big rivers
• Fishing at home in Alaska
• Cruising
• Teaching English as a Second Language
• Writing/Editing
• Solo travel
• Hopeless gadget geek

The best way to contact me is via email. Thanks!
