2) If you had to travel with someone else besides your travel partner, who would it be? (this person can be living, historical or mythical?.)

He Said: Chistopher Columbus, the master explorer

She Said: President Obama, so we can travel in style wherever we go

3)What has been your favorite destination in your wanderings?
He said: Jordan (Petra and Wadi Rum specifically)
She said: Easter Island

4) If you had to eat one last meal, what/ where would you eat?
He said: Yakitori and sushi in Kyoto, Japan
She said: real Italian pasta on a vineyard in Northern Italy, homemade gelato for desert

5)How do you pick the places you visit? Spontaneous vs. planned?
He said: Plan the country and destination, but always leave a few extra days for serendipity
She said: Same

6) If you could solve one problem in the world what would it be?
He said: Stop global warming
She said: Fix world hunger, ensure that everyone has food to eat, everyday

7)You knew it was coming….What has been your greatest travel fight/disagreement?
She said: Every time Cam’s driving and Nicole’s navigating – it never ends well!
He said: Whenever Nicole has the map, whether it’s driving or walking, there is a good chance we’re getting lost, resulting in heated ‘discussions’.
