replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A6. I’m still a relatively new blogger so I don’t have any accomplishments yet except that I went ahead and started blogging even though I was terrified I would fail at it!#CultureTrav

#CultureTrav A 6) I’m honestly shocked whenever I get asked to be on someone’s travel podcast

A6. I may be getting a job at a winery here in Mexico because of my blog. They said I'm hired (content, social media and website redo), just dont know when I start #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O It was weird because I would tell each of them the same stories but they never remarked to each other about what I had told them. #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O #CultureTrav yes though its actually #synchronicity that I experience fairly often

A5. Setbacks and bad luck are all part of the experience. If things didn't go wrong, there would be so many fewer stories to tell. It's character building, too! #CultureTrav

RT @zachandallie: @Nicolette_O A5: But I think most of all being able to see the setback as a funny mishap helps! #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A4: We feel we got lucky to see the humpback whale during our @CHISNPS visit to the island Santa Cruz. It was an incredible time! @VisitCA #CultureTrav


A1: We have a saying in Ireland "What's meant for you never passes you by" It's true in our case, Neil had a choice of two jobs back in 2004 in Sydney. He chose to interview for the office job and that's how we met. Moved in together on date 3! #CultureTrav

replying to @zachandallie @zachandallie Yes and having a good sense of humor about it, haha! #CultureTrav

replying to @Adventuringgal @Adventuringgal Setbacks and changes make an adventure I think. #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O #culturetrav this is too long a story for twitter but I actually almost ran into and over a bud from college in a connecting airport on my way to Costa Rica...ended up he was on the same flight!

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A6: Last year, I wrote up a local massive dinner event called La Panarda. This year, at the event, I had 5-6 people come up to me to tell me they'd read the article to see what they were in for and sent it to friends. It was nice to know strangers actually read it. #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A6: The usual travel correspondent on my radio station was unexpectedly out of reception & unable to do her slot. The producer had seen me posting pics from Hong Kong the previous week so called me up to fill in. Fun times! #CultureTrav
