Your Tour Guide

Unknown's avatar

My name is Juliann and I live near Cincinnati, Ohio. I have officially retired and have more leisure time to poke around this great world of ours. My trips are varied; some weekend getaways, road trips, and some international vacations. But whenever I travel, I see and do as much as I can. I love to explore!

Come with me as I browse the atlas.

Like Travel Books?

I love reading travel memoirs. I've recommended some on Goodreads. I'm also an avid Bookcrosser. Part book club, part scavenger hunt, Bookcrossing lets my books travel as much as I do -- sometimes more! http://www.bookcrossing.com/#
