My Travel Experience to Turkey – The Old Villages – was the first time I had the pleasure of having Suki as a Follow Your Heart guest. We even got to be roommates! She also started something that has now become a “thing” with FYH – shared iPhone/iPad...

I have always been fond of camels…from afar. They amazed me; going for miles and miles with no food and water in the hot desert, packing goods and such on its back and side. Amazing creature really. And their face. Oh, their sweet face. 🙂 So when we were on our Morocco...
