"If you could smack someone in the face with silence, then this was the case. I had emerged from the stuffy Tokyo train and had taken my first few steps in Takao. I found myself straining for noise, but nothing. I heard nothing but the tapping of raindrops on my clear plastic umbrella and my feet scuffling the gravel on the road." This is just an example of the type of writing I can provide, based on the many travels I have personally taken. To date I have visited 10 countries (some more exotic than others): Japan, France, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, England, Andorra, United States and Canada. I love to share what I discover, including travel tips. For example, if you are traveling by train in France, there are tricks to buying the cheapest (and most direct) trip. If you could use someone like me on your team, then I am just a click away. I look forward to hearing from you!
