I started out like most children as a couch traveler. Since I was 3 or 4 years old, I pored over fairy tales in big print, thinking about all those imaginary lands and the mysterious ways and means to reach them. When I graduated to Enid Blytons, " The Faraway Tree Series" and the " Adventure Series" were my first picks and I was sad there was so few of them. I loathed the Secret Seven because all they did was stay at home and have not so secret meetings. Well to each his own, but not my cup of tea.
I have for as long as I remember been fascinated by the travel columns in the Sunday newspaper. All summer the television at home was and still is when I have a holiday tuned to the Travel and Living Channel, which used be the awesomer Discovery Travel. I loved every show on it and watched all of them religiously storing them up in my brain for future use.
