Do you think your travels with your Mom as a child inspired you to be a world traveler now as an adult? Looks like you are enjoying Asia and experiencing the cultures there. I am hopeful my daughters remember their experiences and sometimes hard-won lessons... and want to keep going... because we sure do! Best, Dee Hello Mary,

Good job! I'm rooting for you... my mom traveled with us as children alone in Europe and she has all kinds of crazy similar stories including having a panic attack on an airplane and demanding to be let off even after they taxied to the runway... and they had no choice but to honor that! You're not the only one by far!
