Taking One Adventure At A Time
Hello and welcome! I’m Susan — a retired woman with an unstoppable passion for travel and exploring new places. My love for travel goes back to the early 80s when I worked as a travel agent — one of the best chapters of my life.
Over the years, I’ve visited countless destinations, mostly across the United States, soaking up every moment and memory along the way. For the longest time, I never sat down to write about my adventures — but that’s changing now.
These days, I’m embracing travel even more, whether it’s heading out on a solo road trip or planning a fun getaway with friends. I especially love organizing trips and events for my community — including gatherings for over 100 of my fellow Flamingo Fanatic friends!
I’m so glad you’re here. I hope you’ll join me as I discover new places, revisit old favorites, and share tips, stories, and moments from the road. Let’s make the next adventure our best yet!

My Journey into Travel
When I was a very young girl my dad would take me to the Pittsburgh Airport for cheap entertainment. At that time they had an observation deck where you could step outside and watch the planes take off. I can remember looking through the tiny windows on the airplane and seeing the passerngers inside. I always wondered ” Where are they going? The smell of jet fuel and the sounds of the engines filled my soul and right there is when was the start of a life long passion for travel.
I when to travel school ( yes it was a thing in 1976) and spent the next 15 years helping people travel the globe. I was able to do some traveling myself, Everytime a new brochure came in, I wanted to go there. My bucket list is so long I know I will never get to all the places on it, but I am sure going to try!
