Hi Solo Traveler, We're nervous but we're doing it.

Published: Mon, 11/27/17


First, I want to announce that Kylie from Calgary won the $100 gift certificate for Amazon for completing our 2017 'Have your Say' Reader Survey. We thank everyone who contributed to the survey. In case you didn't see the results, we published them here: Reader Survey Results: Here’s What You Had to Say

What are we nervous about?
For quite some time now we've been saying that we should get into video. Well, we're finally turning that should into action. We're not yet confident enough to take and edit video on the road so we're going to start with some how-to videos. Tracey and I will be on the first three. We may have special guests in the future. Anyway, it's a plan. We're ready to implement. The challenge will be to maintain the momentum. Any support you can give us will be greatly appreciated.

Where we're traveling.
Earlier this month, I went to Portland to attend the Society of American Travel Writers annual convention. It was a great time. I learned lots and loved the city. Read Positively Portland: Where Creativity Abounds. In August, Tracey visited the Badlands of Alberta where she challenged herself. I think you'll want to read Facing Fear and Finding Spirit in the Canadian Badlands. We are both in planning mode for 2018 and will reveal our plans early in the new year. 

That's it for now. Safe and happy solo travel to all.

Janice
