Hello, my name is Beth Puma and I am beginning this journey as a travel blogger with the desire to pass along my insights about the places my family and I have visited – over 15 countries and more than half the states in the U.S. – to share my travel tips to make your next trip more enjoyable. My love of travel began as a high school exchange student when I took my first airplane flight to live with a family in Ecuador. It was a scary but exciting experience and sparked my curiosity to explore new places and meet new people. It’s about the joy in traveling – the planning, packing and exploring – and returning back home enlightened and enriched. By sharing my travel experiences and what I love about my favorite destinations I hope I’m able, in some small way, to enhance your travels….so come along on the journey!
