In May 2000, I spontaneously decided to embark on a european journey while on work travel in London. This journey has led me to explore, experience, and embrace the breathtaking scenery through 10 countries in Europe.

This has left me fond memories, memorable experiences, and wonderful friends that I have continued to keep in touch with since the trip. I have also learned how HUGE the world was, and how little I was in comparison. There is so much to explore on this place we call earth, and I have been so fortunate and blessed to have experienced a little bit more of it in this lifetime.

The countless memories and incidents I have been fortunate to experience will be etched in my mind forever. With this group, we experienced it all together. From partying in every country, to whitewater rafting in Austria, to eating escargo, and to experiencing our last nite together atop the Eiffel Tower, I have truly had the time of my life.

To the Contiki group of the European Discovery Tour May 4, 2000:
thanks for the fond memories and the wonderful friendships...


May you enjoy the pictures as you share in my adventure through Europe, as I continue on my journey to find my "Passion 4 Paradise..." Salud!!! ~ maricar
