Traveling will fill your life with joy and satisfaction. You experience life more fully when you hit the road and leave your comfort zone. I've felt its rewards more fully through my years on the road. I've grown and learned a lot, much like Mark Twain.

Twain wrote: “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”

This week, I share some of my reasoning behind why I love to travel and also how you can kickstart your travel experience. Join me for the as we delve into WHY you should travel too.

Celtic Music Spotlight

Abby Green
Album: Why Should I?
Location: Austin, Texas
Abby Green brings celtic music to life with her expressive vocals, her unique arrangements of harmony, and supportive Irish bazooka playing. She travels the nation-wide researching, performing, and sharing the music she loves. This is her third CD, and she also compiled a book of songs, The Tradition of Irish Song, complete with a harmony CD. Traditional music is meant to be shared with everyone!
Personal Fact: I love cheese! When I travel, I order the same cheese-based dish from every restaurant I visit and compare Baltimore and Annapolis crab dip, Ohio grilled cheese, and cheese enchiladas!

Check out some of her music on the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast, and stay tuned for her newer music to be featured!
