[Lynette]

Ok. One of my online buddies here convinced me that I've been a little remiss regarding posting on this board. So here goes...
I was born in Atlanta Ga., moved to Thaiti when I was two years old with my folks and two older sisters, (my dad moved us there as he had jobs in Austrailia and the Phillipines, but loved Moorea and Bora Bora in Tahiti). Came back here at fourteen after both my folks passed with my sisters for school. I graduated from UCLA, started a small business, and was very fortunate at business developement. I love traveling and have a passion for island life, both in the south seas and the caribbean. I try to get back to Bora Bora and Moorea about once a year now to visit friends and relatives (my mom was Tahitian). Aside from being an action junkie (I'll try anything once), I still play music and sing in a couple club bands on weekends, and party the same way I did while I was in school. *SIGH*, guess that's about it. But, I'll answer any questions, If anyone has any.
*KISSES*

what would you say is the best place you've traveled to or the one you'd want to visit often?

Well... I like to "get away", so the traditional places like Europe and such are generally not my cup of tea (although the Italian part of me LOVES Florence and Rome... AH! The food!!!). I love island life. Even though I was brought up in the south seas, the different culture of the caribbean intrigues me. Still, the most BEAUTIFUL island on earth is still Bora Bora according to James A. Mitchner. It's not for everyone though. Most Americans would probably consider it primitive by Hawaiian standards... But, THAT'S the beauty of it. And, the Tahitian people are fabulous. There are places in south Africa that I thought were nice as well, and The valley of the kings in Egypt is truly awe-inspiring, but they're not islands . Aruba is another favorite of mine too. It's not lush and green like where I was used to, it's more of a desert island, but really fun non-the-less. Just no surfing there .
OK, What's your favorite place?

I can say I've been a few places out of the country but for way different reasons. Back in high school, our marching band went to a competition up in Quebec for a weekend in May. Also spent a semester in Wroxton, England which i totally enjoyed with all the tours they offered throughout the semester, including a weekend in Edinburg, Scotland and Paris, France. in the last 8 years, went on two cruises, one through the Western Carribean (Grand Cayman & Cozumel) and the Eastern Carribean (St. Thomas, Barbados, Dominica, St. Lucia, etc.) for the view, the islands in the Eastern Carribean. so peaceful there and crystal blue waters with the rising islands and all. what an amazing getaway from the world. England was great too with all the castles and Stonehenge and scenery as well

I agree. I was in England for a photo shoot once when I was in college. I was there in Feb. and it was a bit dank, but I LOVED the architecture and the lands north of London. Justbeautiful country with a very different historical feel there.

it's amazing to think how long many of the structures have been there. Even where we dormed for the semester was a mansion built on top of an abbey that was around, if i recall what they said correctly, since AD 600? and of course when we went to Canterbury which is obviously referenced from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. but i do remember the difference in sunlight very well. so dark early in Feb but by the time May came sunset was around 10PM or so.
