I traveled to Lithuania to learn more about my family history, with two Swedish women with the same interest. Our families intersected in the period 1920 through 1940.

We hired an English-speaking guide to make it an efficient experience. The guide drove us from Vilnius to Siauliai and back, over three days. He was wonderful.

It was intense, magical.

There are a few people who encourage me to share my trip reports which are mostly a small photo album. Here are two.

One is hiking up the Annapurna Valley in Nepal with an adventure travel group in 2013.

The other is hiking in the Alps around Mt. Blanc with Road Scholars in 2014.
