Have you ever gotten lost on purpose?

I get unintentionally lost often enough that I don’t have much of a desire to get lost on purpose. However, it is a great way to explore.

Where would you take a month-long road trip?

I have always wanted to spend a summer driving across the country on a baseball stadium tour.

What are your top three travel destinations?

I’d like to go to Barcelona for the culture & architecture, Costa Rica for the beaches & wildlife, and New Zealand because it looks beautiful. Of places I’ve been before, I’d go back to Italy for the food.

Coffee or tea?

Both, specifically iced coffee or hot mint tea, but I am trying to drink more tea than coffee.

What was your first job?

If you don’t include yardwork for neighbors/family, then my very first job was working for a clam bake caterer. Other early jobs included little league umpire and grocery store bagger. My parents made sure I was always busy.

What’s the strangest place you’ve ever visited?

I attended graduate school in New Orleans, so I found myself in a lot of strange places during my time there. The strangest had to be a prison rodeo at a state prison (I was a paid attendee).
