I too have the travel bug and so do my children. You mentioned not appreciating your own backyard and I think that comes from where you live is where you work to earn the money to go somewhere but I learned as a child that Sunday was family day and we went on Sunday drives and explored so I really enjoy that too. My husband and I currently live in St Augustine, Florida,we moved from Port Angeles, WA 2008 for the sun and warm ocean. Every day it is important to take some time and appreciate life around you, you mentioned this in your latest email from Mazatlan and the 2 men playing chess. I like the personal way you write about your travels it makes me remember my travels. Thank you. I have enjoyed reading what you write. I too have the travel bug and so do my children.

I live in Washington and have been all over my state. It drives me crazy when my friends talk of going to the beach they all go to Oregon. What the heck, the beaches in Washington are second to none. Boy are they missing out. I couldn’t agree more with this post. I live in Washington and have been all over my state.

People often long to faraway places and forget to appreciate what's in their local area. I especially like the part on Sarasota. Someday I'd like to visit the Sarasota Blues Fest and also check out all the theatres in the city. I LOVE this post!

My partner and I have definitely had our best trips this way. Do you find that even doing this, you get tied to certain spots? I know our adventures quickly turn into habits.

I think that for many people in the UK, mention holiday and their first reaction is to jump on a plane to head for warmer climes. When I started my European travel business I virtually ignored the UK. However after a couple of years I began to realise that I should be writing about my home country of Scotland too. I even wrote a price extolling the virtues of staying at home for your Summer holiday. http://www.europealacarte.co.uk/blog/2007/06/30/7-reasons-to-take-a-summer-holiday-at-home/ I think it’s all to easy not to appreciate and savour what’s in your own back yard.
