You to can be an Exploraphoric

When I was a little girl I was fascinated with maps.  One of my favorite things to do was to go on an exploration through Grandma and Grandpas' National Geographics collection.  I would stay up late reading about different cultures and distant lands.  I would study the maps and try to memorize the cities.  In my dreams the pages would come alive and I would be hunting lions on safari, wrestling anacondas in the Amazon Basin or sitting around the fire chatting with people wearing bones in their noses.  I decided that I wasn't going to just dream about travel, I would actually do it.  So here I am, I've traveled to over 30 countries, all but 2 states in the U.S.A. and my list of places I want to see just keeps getting longer.

So if any of you have been bitten by the travel bug, I'd like to invite you to blog along with me and share your travel experiences and photos.  So Explore, Experience, and Enjoy the life of an Exploraphoric.
