We were poor for most of my childhood so travel to us meant a day trip via car, and those were few and far between. Accordingly, I savored every moment of the car ride and my eyes were glued to everything we passed on the road. That turned into a near-fetish for maps which sparked my wanderlust.

Although enjoying a comfortable lifestyle as a kid being an only child in a middle-class family, I developed the same passion for atlases and geography. My first (luxurious !) atlas was indeed offered to me by an aunt I visited in NYC at Xmas 1969, I was 14 yo, it was the famous ("National Geographic Atlas of the World"), I kept it a long time, and then much later I bought a new one, the 2007 edition, and I'd like to buy the next one, for the 2007 Atlas is already obsolete, do you know by chance when will the National Geographic will publish a new edition of hiscomprehensive World Atlas ?
Growing up in a multicultural city (NYC), I was always fascinated with learning about different cultures and experiencing different cuisines. Also, I've always been interested in learning about my family history, which has roots the USA, Caribbean, Europe, and Africa. Through this interest, I've made it a priority to travel. Blessed to have been to Bermuda, China, India, France, Turkey, Australia, South Korea, Japan, UK, Norway, and Canada among international destinations; and to have traveled throughout the United States (including Guam).
My interest was sparked after I found out that I could beat the servants in some countries.
are there any countries that don't allow you to beat the servants?
