My fascination with Spain began when I started studying Spanish at the age of 12. Learning the language opened the door of discovery to a new culture rich with unique people, foods, and experiences. This launched my lifelong journey of exploration, leading me to earning a degree in foreign languages.
I spent a year living in Spain for my studies, exploring languages and countries beyond Spain, including Portugal, France, Germany, Italy and more. My thirst for learning about other countries and cultures has continued as an adult and expanded to include more exotic locals such as Morocco, Peru, and Tahiti.

Maureen at Platinum Journeys really helped me plan my trip to Ireland for myself, husband and in Laws. I was crazy enough to insist that I would rather drive in Ireland than pay the high cost of a private chauffer. And when my father in law dropped the bomb that his drivers license expired, making h...
