If you could pick up a new skill in an instant, what would it be and why?
I’d like to speak fluent Spanish. Many of the places I travel are Spanish-speaking countries, and I would enjoy conversing naturally.

What was your favorite place you have traveled and why?
This would be a toss-up between Kauai and Madrid. I enjoyed Kauai for the hiking and exploration and Madrid for the history and culture.
