My Journeys


Welcome to My Journeys blog. I have several trips planned in the coming year and I want to savor each one of them. I’m looking forward to tracking my adventures here to get the most out of each experience. I’m currently sitting at the Turkish Lounge at the Miami International Airport with my wife waiting for our flight to Rome Italy! I’m so excited. I can’t believe this is finally happening. After mulling over the idea in March we finally decided to buy tickets in July.

Recognizing that my health can go either way, I’m looking to take advantage of what the world has to offer me as much as possible. I will focus on living my life to the fullest whenever I get the opportunity. I’m on my way to Rome and I couldn’t be more ecstatic!! I can’t believe this is day one of My Journeys.
