Never afraid to try something new, she lived in three cities and traveled to over 10 countries before getting married. Even after marriage, wanderlust persisted and friends never knew which return address to expect on their yearly Christmas card.She channeled her love for travel into a children's book she published for use in Montessori classrooms, titled Where Am I In The Universe
