My grandparents were avid travelers. After they retired from the USPS, Grammie and Grandpa spent a lot of their free time exploring the US (Alaska and Hawaii included), Europe, and Australia. I like to believe that’s where I got my love for travelling.
Last year before I took off for London, my Grandpa bestowed on me the camera that he and Grammie took with them to all of their destinations- a Canon AE-1.
