If you're looking to find a deal to get somewhere, I'm a good resource to have in your pocket.
Good to know.

@dominica and I are full time world travelers. Based in Dallas more than anywhere else in the US (own a home there) we've been living outside of the US for the last two years. Have been to 31 countries while living out of Spain, Panama, Nicaragua, Greece (Crete) and Romania. We leave for a week's vacation in Rome in 19 days and from there going to our new home in Noto, Siciliy.
I'll be in Venice for a couple of days mid-January, and taking the family to Rome for a week in mid-February.

Wow, what was the length of time for all of that?
We will be in Italy, but very far away from you while there. Rome until Jan 22nd, then Sicily. Planning to ferry to Malta and Tunisia while there.

The first trip, DFW-CLT-JFK-AUH DXB-DOH-BKK-HKG-HND-SFO-DFW was the crown jewel of the year. First class on American, Etihad (The Apartments, if you're not familiar with it, google it and watch the YouTube video), Qatar Air, Cathay Pacific, Japan Airlines. 202k AA miles, and $170. About a day each in Dubai, Qatar, Hong Kong and San Fran. 3 days in Bangkok.

That's a very fast trip
How old are the kids? Do you do tons of travel for work? -
@CitrixNewbJD last year we road tripped from our home in central Transylvania to Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Kosovo (celebrated my baby's fifth birthday there), Macendonia (was there for the revolution and was there the night that the government fell) then back through Serbia and across Romania.
-
We are hoping to buy a flat in the former USSR this year.

How old are the kids? Do you do tons of travel for work?That trip was 10 days total, if I recall. The one day visits were 20-23 hour stopovers, but the trip was as much about the F products as it was about the locations.
My daughter is 6. She didn't go on that one with me. She did London last year for Christmas, and Paris this year for Thanksgiving. Otherwise, her travel is domestic. Her #1 bucket list item is Beijing for the Great Wall.

Are you making most of those trips alone? just you and the wife? the whole family?

My kids can't wait for China, too. They are 5 and 8 (just turned) and have been to 29 countries each (30th will be in January) and they really want to go to China but we are saving that till they are old enough to remember and our friend who will be our tour guide's baby is old enough to go as they just had a baby from their last trip to China.

It's a mix. My wife and I did Switzerland together in October, and Hong Kong together a couple weeks ago. Most domestic travel is together.

We are full family travel only, at least most times. I probably will be in Panama sometime alone this year.
And @dominica has to do Noto -> Rome -> Orlando and back for a wedding alone this year.

LOL, I was wondering about that. Yeah, it can be changed. But when it does get changed you have to know or your login stops working, so it has to be coordinated.

@scottalanmiller Howabout TravelingJay? I assume usernames are not case-sensitive for login?
