Welcome to my Travel Blog! (Created April 5th, 2007)

Following the footsteps of my dear friends Linda and Adam, I've decided to create a travel blog separate from my regular one here. It will be nice to have everything all in one place and more accessible too! I hope to backblog trips I've already taken as I make scrapbooks for them in "real life," but of course the point is to share trips as I go. I also believe it's important to give back to those countries that I have visited that are in need, and I'm documenting that here. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the blog!

Costa Rica

Adam, Greg, Matt and I are going on a Gap Tour to Costa Rica in just about two weeks! We'll be gone from April 21 to May 1, 2007 and we'll be witnessing firsthand Costa Rica's breathtaking biodiversity. We plan to relax in delicious Hot Springs by Arenal, an active volcano, go zip-gliding through Monteverde's cloud rain forest, and kiss monkeys by the Pacific Ocean in Manuel Antonio, one of Costa Rica's National Parks. Well, maybe we won't kiss monkeys. We're staying a couple of extra days - the boys will probably spend some extra time in San Jose while I take a five hour bus ride to visit my friend Miles who lives on a sugarcane farm in Guanacaste. Here's hoping I remember some Spanish!

Since this is the first trip this blog is operational for, there will definitely be updates and pictures!
