About this blog

Kicking off early celebrations with a festival in Wales, this is a big birthday trip I'm taking this September to explore the countries where my paternal grandparents were born, Romania/Moldova and Odessa in the Ukraine. Then heading off over the Black Sea for a couple weeks sun and fun with friends in Turkey.
