Welcome to My Revamped Traveler's Blog - Here's My New List of the Top Places to See in the World!

Hello everyone!

So, I have decided to change the format of my blog. I am now planning on updating this weekly (if not more often) with travel info, destination reports/guides and photos - you name it - it's going to be all travel related, all the time. I'll be sharing stories from my experiences around the world, and hopefully helping some of you get to these same incredible places that I have been privileged to visit.

In the last three and a half years, I've been to 20+ countries and seen some absolutely amazing things and I'm not close to stopping. I have the itch to travel and it's simply not going away.

I've crossed off many major destinations in Europe and Central America - but the more I travel, the more I realize how much there is to see in the world. My bucket list of traveling sites is always evolving - it's constantly adapting to the changes I experience as a person and as a traveler when I see the world.

With that said, as I research future trips and read other amazing traveling stories learning about these incredible places, landmarks and cultures on earth, I decided that it was time to start making a list of what really stands out to me. Below you will find my list of the top places that I want to visit in the world for one reason or another. A lot of these places are off the beaten path, but anyone who has traveled knows that some of the most beautiful sights in the world are the hardest to find.

If you have any comments or questions on anything listed - let me know. Until then - enjoy, subscribe and please share this new blog with your travel obsessive friends and let's see the world together.

In no particular order, here are some simply fascinating and beautiful places, hikes and festivals that you just might see me at in the near future.
