1: What do you long to travel to see again? Florence, Italy.
ReplyDelete2: What sound of travel awakens you? Same as you; landing gear.
3: What have you tasted when traveling, that was never the same anyplace else? Anchovies in Spain, except that now that I live here I don't know if that counts as traveling. Bagels in New York, but then I grew up there.
4: What is the most exotic thing you have touched while traveling? I can't remember his name.
5: If I travel to your town, what will I smell? Sea air. The smoke from wood fires cooking fish. Suntan lotion. Orange blossoms. Jasmine.
1: What do you long to travel to see again? Where to start.
ReplyDelete2: What sound of travel awakens you? The regional rail horn will sometimes wake me.
3: What have you tasted when traveling, that was never the same anyplace else? Steak and beef. Argentina had by far, the best steaks I ever had.
4: What is the most exotic thing you have touched while traveling? Oh dear.....you can only imagine!!!
5:If I travel to your town, what will I smell? Probably food being cooked. With so many restaurants and bistros, in Doylestown it's all you smell sometimes. And in new hope bread baking from one of the bakeries.
