I am Janelle Brian and my husband, Eddie and I are travel addicts from Colorado. We now find ourselves in the phase of life called ’empty-nesters’ and we plan to make the most of it, by traveling in our tiny trailer, writing books, taking photos and learning more about art!

    This is some of the best information I have found available. You should consider adding the blog to your book as it is easer to highlight and mark your place so it can be reread at a any given point along your journey. I am so impressed! Way to go Jan!!
