As you know, I’m a pretty good little planner. I like having my ducks in a row when I travel. Not every moment of every trip planned, just documents ready, arrangements made and bags packed in Tetris-like fashion.

I’m Going To Cuba!
You may remember, I contemplated going to Cuba last year on my first solo trip.
