In the tiny Peruvian village of Pukara, we made a very special friend: a little girl who was just looking for someone to play volleyball with her. Needless to say, we obliged!

About The Author
Ellen first traveled overseas at age 15 when her father insisted upon sending her on a school trip to Germany. And that’s when it happened: high atop Switzerland’s Mt. Pilatus, she was bitten by the travel bug and has never quite recovered. Since then, she has traveled to more than 15 countries on four continents. Highlights of her adventures include rafting along the Nile River in Uganda, riding camels around Egypt’s Pyramids at Giza, sea kayaking in the Adriatic Sea, watching the sunset on the island of Santorini, exploring Machu Picchu, and cycling New England’s stunning coastline. She continues to hold her father responsible for all the money she has spent on travel since that first trip to Europe.

Agreed! And even if they don’t ask — they’re usually glad to have you join in!

Thanks so much! I agree — I think it’s good to get a different perspective on the world on a regular basis, even if it has to just come through photos. Thanks for stopping by!
