What is your Passion?

My passion is travel. It is something that I have yet to see fulfilled. Yes, I have travelled. Not as much as some people but again more than others. It is a passion that fuels me. I marvel seeing history, people, beaches, hotels and all that it encompasses.
I work in the travel industry to fuel my desires and to help people achieve their dreams. But it is a double edge sword. Seeing people obtain their dreams and empty inside without achieving mine. Travelling and working in travel is something I have longed to do since I was 7. As a family we did weekend vacations, went to florida once and to Mexico once. The passion was instilled. I have been fortunate to travel to some places, but not as I had once seeing myself doing. The travel industry does not pay well or give us the time off that would entice our clients to travel. I would love to do a volunteer vacation working at an orphanage. I would like to give something back while learning of a culture and people.
My bucket list also includes: Visiting egypt, cruising the nile and visiting the red sea, A safari in comfort camping, Europe: Every where and especially, battle fields and Auschwitz. Seeing Australia, and visiting Steve Irwins Wild life preserve, New Zealand.
Asia: A river cruise, Great Wall of China and more.
So much more...
