Welcome to my VT pages.

Spring will be here soon I hope.

Me with mum in Cyprus Xmas 2007
Hello can you all do me a favour please ?

The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors /advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

Only takes a few seconds of your time to help save a life.......

Hello and welcome to my homepage .Vt is one of the many things I enjoy doing in life.Travel is the one thing that makes me feel alive. I so look forward to my trips abroad.Meeting new people and eating new foods. I like mountains and hot climates and just feeling safe .I enjoy making pages on here and am always updating and adding to them. Several need updating such as Greece and Cyprus and I am always adding new tips to my Spain pages.
Just had 15 days in Turkey and ended up buying a house. Spain or Turkey? Time will tell.

I have spent the last couple of months tidying my garden up now I have quiet neighbours. I have replaced hedges out and front and cleared borders and replanted them. I have planted over 700 bulbs in total, summer and winter ones. I have trimmed trees out back and cleared ivy up and replanted borders and tidied them. I have also shingled up side of house and also around back of patio and put edging in. It now is a garden to be proud of. It should look amazing next spring and summer. I took this picture today( 10th Oct 2006).
Here I am enjoying my parents garden in Cyprus

Beaches

I do tend to travel to beach resorts alot.I own a small house in Spain and most of my trips are to there(North Costa Blanca).My plan is to live there fulltime in a few years with my hubby and grow oranges and lemons and cacti in my garden.Hope you find my pages interesting and helpful and please feel free to ask me anything about my pages and email me etc.Look forward to hearing from you.

Mexico was stunning.

I like exotic tropical countries and I loved Mexico.The people were so friendly and gentle.Think my favourite destination of all has to be Mexico.
Tulum was breathtaking.
Wonderful scenery

French Alps was a good trip

I done a 10 day tour of France 4 years back which was a wonderful trip.I loved the French Alps and the tasty food and hot weather.I hope to have the time to do another road trip here one day.

Alittle about me.

I enjoy many things in life.Travel, summer,family,friends,red wine,chinese food,a good movie(Godfather)(Alien), a relaxing cd(Travis-Coldplay-Tom Jones),swimming, keep-fit, gardening,visiting my nanny,star filled skies and astronomy.I think I am a calm nature loving person who tries to see both sides of a coin.I do sometimes get down in winter as I miss summer so much.
Felix is my babe
Said goodbye to my car this summer

Future Trips.

I have many places I wish to see in the future.I would love to see Thailand and America(LA and Grand Canyon and San-Fran and Joshua Tree and Palm Springs).India would be great too-Goa.I really fancy seeing Australia (Gold Coast) and trying to learn how to surf;-).I have many places in Europe I long to visit too.The list is endless.And thanks to vt it just keeps on growing.

My ideal place

I like to holiday in quiet places and not feel trapped.I tend to take trips off season so places are not too busy.As I have taken lots of beach holidays I would like to do a holiday or two away from the beach to see a change of scenery.I like to see old buildings and how the local people live away from fancy resorts too.The real side of a country.I think the local people and local food is a big part of a trip for me.I always try the local food.I hate chips.
Tropical plants
Moonlight.

 Hey Rach! It's been ages since we've chatted. Hope you're having a great summer thus far.

 Sounds like you're looking for a place in the middle of nowhere! The other fact about NZ is that 25% of the population live in Auckland and 75% live in the North Island, so the South Island is even more isolated.
