    Two Wins and a Loss in Shreveport

    January 29, 2019 /

    For those of us who call the Dallas area home Shreveport is an unremarkable and forgettable pass-through town on the way to the Gulf Coast. The casino-hotels dotting the river are a bygone reminder of the days when us Texas folks would flock to Louisiana for a weekend of gambling. I never considered Shreveport a potential destination for anything but sometimes work and life take you places you never expect to go and if you travel with an open mind you might actually have some fun along the way. Last week we had a work meeting in Shreveport and I challenged my local work friends to change my mind about…

    Hi! Welcome to Wandering With A Purpose. Thank you so much stopping by. I am breaking every blogging rule by launching this site with only one post.

In the meantime follow…

    Travel Obsession

    January 7, 2019 /

    I’ve been obsessed with travel my entire life. My 6th grade geography project was to plan a trip to Europe including flights, budget, hotels and a full sightseeing itinerary. From that moment I was hooked and I’ve been planning and traveling to destinations near and far for over 30 years. Do you dream of traveling but aren’t sure where to start? Are you afraid you can’t afford to travel or can’t fit travel into the middle of your busy life? Do you want to see new places but wish you had practical advice about finding hotels, flights and transportation? Do you have a credit card in your wallet and wonder…
