TRAVEL – IT MAKES YOU SMILE!

Myanmar girl with stick

 

In January I started a photo essay series on Facebook titled “TRAVEL – IT MAKES YOU SMILE! “ Since then I have had lots of positive response from followers on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter suggesting I produce a related article – a Photo Essay – on Travel And Photo Today.  Sounded good to me.

Travel is a wonderful and broadening experience.  Not only does it provide an opportunity to visit historical and exotic locations, it also gives the traveler a chance to experience other cultures and meet wonderful people.  Wherever I have traveled I have been fortunate to meet lovely, gracious, welcoming and open people. Their smiles are wonderful and infectious.  When I meet them I smile.  When I view their photos later after I have returned home – I smile again.  Yes, very truly, Travel – It Makes You Smile!
