My goal is to try out new hotel chains and sample the many airline cabins out there. Having been both a city boy and living in the suburbs, I love traveling to all destinations both big and small.

Travel When You Can
I fly all over the United States as well as a couple of international flights each year. With my trip to Thailand I just visited my 23rd country, 9 countries in Africa, 5 in Europe, 6 in the Americas and 3 in Asia. I have great priority status but almost always travel economy. I try to show how a little status can go a long way.
