A Collection Of Travel Experiences

Irma has traveled to many parts of the world over the past 30 years. Her early travels were in conjunction with work engagements in Saudi Arabia as a hydro therapist in a Taif hospital. During leaves from work, she made it a point to meander back to the States in order to see the world. Not one to be content with the main tourist attractions, Irma frequently sought out lodging and adventures in areas off the beaten path so that she could get to know the people in their lands.
