Planning Your Trip

Planning Your Trip

One of the most important things we’ve learned through the years is to know ourselves and our travel preferences.  There are lots of awesome destinations out there and lots of different ways to experience them.  Knowing ourselves and honoring who we are when we make choices is critical to great trips.  We encourage everyone, whether well traveled or just starting out, to ask the following questions when planning a trip.

People are always asking me to name my favorite: country, city, beach, etc. Over the course of my travels the last 15 or so years i have seen quite a few interesting things. But by far one of the most unique experiences took place during the two years we were living in Hyderabad, India, when we decided to spend Thanksgiving in the Republic of the Maldives.

Not every trip we take is to an idyllic sandy beach destination, we also like mix in some cities, lakes, and mountains. As was the case a few years back when we visited several locations in Austria and Germany. While on a family trip, you really never know when your photographic opportunities are going to arise….you just know that you need to be ready.
