Real Estate is my job and my passion. But as much as I love selling homes in Phoenix there is one thing I love more. Travel! I am a travel junkie. I love thinking about it, I love planning it and I love actually doing it.
My favorite destination is Europe. I am an absolute Europhile. I love the history, the different cultures, the languages, the sights, sounds and smells of Europe. I was fortunate enough to live in Italy years ago and I think that started my love for Europe. And while I've made many trips to different parts of Europe, I don't think I'll ever reach the point of having seen it all.
So I'm thrilled to be planning this years European Vacation. A trip back to my beloved Italy. We'll start in Venice. After enjoying the canals and gondolas we'll take a train to Florence. Art, architecture, and the the beautiful Tuscan countryside will be waiting. Then it's off to Rome. The Eternal City has so much to see that even after three trips there I have a long list. Finally, after enjoying all these great Italian cities, we'll spend a long weekend in London. My favorite city in the world.
I can't get enough of the British capital. This will be my eight visit and I get excited about it everytime. The combination of history, theatre, art, museums, and those great pubs just can't be beat. Throw in football (soccer to us), Royals, and Prime Ministers question time and there's just no place like it.
So even though it's March and my trip is in October I'm already dying to go. Thinking about my trip gets me through those tough days in Real Estate when transactions are falling apart and I just can't seem to get a break. My European vacations are what recharge and refresh me. And as soon as this one is over. I'll start planning the next one!
