For as long as I remember, I’ve wanted to visit Marrakech. Maybe it was because of Mustafa, our neighbour, whose generous laugh and plates of couscous always seemed so inviting.

Amidst busy work schedules, aContinue reading “2014 SNAPSHOT: DONEGAL”

2014 Snapshot: London

I got to travel twice in January – 2014 is shaping up well! This trip was part work, part leisure.
