After retiring from New York City Transit in November 2016, following 28 years of dedicated service. I set out to explore the world at my own pace. What began as a few solo trips quickly turned into something much bigger<\/p>\n

\u00a0Everything changed after completing a three-week, 26 state road trip with my daughter and two grandchildren, the experience sparked a deep passion for travel and discovery<\/p>\n

Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to visit 5 continents, 49 countries and over 100 cities-and I’m just getting started. My journey is driven by a love for culture, connection, history and the beauty our world has to offer and I am passionate about helping others experience it for themselves\u00a0<\/p>\n
