Why I love to travel:
Travelling opens your mind. It helps you explore new things – often creating a greater appreciation for what you already have. What could be better than experiencing how other cultures live: to hear their language, use different currencies and commerce as well as travel to places you have never been before?

Marie Mercado, Accounting ClerkAbout me in exactly 5 words:
I love keeping myself busy
Favourite Travel Memory:
When we went for a long drive from Florida to Texas, we stopped by some place for gas and food. We saw restaurants and fast food stands nearby the gas station but all the menu listings seemed to be exotic, (like fried frog legs, grilled alligator tail, frog sandwich, etc.), then we noticed that the place had a big sign that said “Frog City”. We ended up ordering pizza.
