In my regional function, I get to do a lot of traveling but, it is not the kind of leisure travel one might think. With my 5 year old and bi-continental marriage where my husband is gone half the time, I delay my departure until the absolute last minute. What this means is sometimes I leave on the last flight or an a really early one. As soon as I arrive at my destination, I start work as soon as possible so, I can return ASAP. While there, I work till very late so, very little time to sight see. So, when people ask me how Abidjan or Geneva was, I shrug and tell them, the airports were great!
So, we have decided to try to take advantage of my travel schedule and try to do things together as a family. First trip is a real vacation (as in little to no checking of email!) to Peru in a few days-Machu Picchu of course and then, around Thanksgiving to Budapest...with my stepdaughter in school, mine and my husband's schedules, it is amazing that there just happened to be a work trip planned around the time that we all could go...now we just have to figure out how we will pay for it!
