Over thirty-five years in teaching has rewarded me with a wealth of experience working with young people. I enjoyed it so much, in fact, that I ended up going back to the classroom as a supply teacher after I retired. Now the prospect of continuing to be a part of the educational experience, by helping you on trips with your students, is exciting.

During my career I've participated in many school trips. We've taken our students to places ranging from camps in Muskoka and the big cities in southern Ontario - Otttawa, Toronto, Hamilton, Niagara Falls - to such large metropolitan attractions in the U.S. as Chicago, New York City, Boston and Washington D.C.

My own personal interest in travel has taken me from coast to coast, from the grandeur of the Rockies in B.C. and Alberta to the charming beauty of Quebec and the Maritimes. In addition to the U.S. destinations already mentioned, my family and I have been to Florida, Atlantic City, Myrtle Beach, Arizona, Las Vegas and Hawaii.

We've enjoyed many trips to the Caribbean, on cruise liners and in resorts, on twelve different islands, including Aruba, the Bahamas and the Dominican Republic.

Europe and the Far East have beckoned as well. And so we travelled to England, France and Italy, and we've been to Japan twice.

I look forward to working with you to make your travel experiences as much fun as mine have been for me.
