A8: Maybe not derailed exactly but I've had my fair share of bumps. I usually just try to go with the flow & stay calm. Worse comes to worse, I take matters into my own hands & do what I need to in order to stay sane! #InspireToWander

A8 #inspiretowander I had a flight get cancelled in Arizona. This is where it’s handy to know what your rights are. I asked them if they could give me a flight with another carrier which is what they did, otherwise heaven knows how long I would have waited.

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A8: Got food poisoning in Rome and had to cancel a few things there, didn't get to go to Vatican City at all, but dragged myself to the Colosseum all gross and sick. Thankfully I managed to feel a little bit better halfway through the tour! #InspireToWander

A8: This is why I don’t travel on a shoestring anymore. If something goes wrong, and sometimes it does, it makes me feel so much better to know I have the flexibility if I need it. #InspireToWander

A9. I went to Portugal for the first time in 2018 and I'd go back there if I could in 2019. There was so much more to explore and do that I didn't get a chance to do last year #InspireToWander @inspiretowander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO @inspiretowander Oh gosh that's terrible! I got food poisoning in Germany 2 days before we were leaving back in 2015. Luckily we had no concrete plans so I could just hug porcelain all day long! #InspireToWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A8: an AirBnB we had set up in Sri Lanka fell through at the last min, so we changed plans and went to Haputale. No clue about this place and once we got there it was stunning and the food was delicious. A real gem of a find. #InspireToWander

replying to @Polymathically @JustinLaurenXO @OffTrackTravel @inspiretowander Then she remarried, owned an island (where @TheBrandoResort is now), had a plantation, and eventually moved #SF in her later years. And even after she became a US citizen, she sailed to China & SE Asia like 3 times a year! I think I inherited some of her traits. #InspireToWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A9. In 2018, I went to Phoenix and Sedona, Arizona. I'd already been before, but I can't get enough. In Feb 2019, I think I'm going to go again. There are so many great hiking opportunities in Arizona. This is me hiking Cathedral Rock. #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel @JustinLaurenXO @inspiretowander Ugh. I got terrible food poisoning in Vietnam and couldn’t do anything for 2 days. It really sucks. Thankfully, we were just on a beach so I wasn’t missing too much. #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A7 Depends on the trip & who I’m traveling with. Recently went to Ireland with my 78 year old mother so opted for a prepackaged tour just made things easier and enjoyable for her. My sister plans when we travel together and I generally plan otherwise #InspireToWander

replying to @Polymathically @JustinLaurenXO @OffTrackTravel @inspiretowander @TheBrandoResort And that was my paternal great-great-grandma.
