Ticino Region, Switzerland

To some, the most perfect place in the world is the Ticino region of Switzerland: It has all of the wonderful things we love about Italy and Italians, with the perfect organization of Switzerland. Come visit it with me! (This is Part II of my Switzerland trip in May of 2022. If you want to start at the beginning of the trip, click here.)

Come with me to Switzerland!

For two weeks in May 2022, I traveled in Switzerland. (I also visited Salzburg and Munich). If you would like to read about where I went and what I did (and what I thought about it all), here’s the place to start: Lucerne!

I’m Back! (or I was back in Puerto Rico!)

As the world reopens after the Covid-19 pandemic, my wanderlust has gotten the best of me and I have begun moving around again. It is a little hard to call it traveling, as it is really just going places I need to go, but I managed to incorporate a little tourist activity, too. Here is a series of pictures I took on a trip to and from Rincon while I was recently in San Juan (for the first time in 15 months!). I hope you enjoy them!

Milwaukee Gem – Grant Park

Hi! I am back on the job, chronicling travel for your future planning. Maybe Milwaukee isn’t on a bucket list, but you might find yourself there, on purpose or by chance, and I want to make sure you have something fun to visit. This is an account, mostly pictures, of a place I just discovered, literally, right in my backyard! (PS Even if you wouldn’t go to Milwaukee, I think you’ll like the pictures.)

The leaves always look fiery against a bright blue sky.

Want to see Paris au temps du Covid-19?

Through a serendipitous connection with a couple of photographers in Paris, I have been given permission to share their images of Paris during the current phase of the corona virus pandemic.  The pictures will seem very empty to you, but the grandeur of the boulevards and the monuments is revealed where before we could only imagine it!
