I am always looking for new sources of inspiration, and often that comes from traveling to new places and immersing myself in new cultures.  And each trip brings with it an element of self discovery that I draw from for months and years to come.

 This year I have a few big new quests on my list:

Jaipur, India

I've been to Jaipur, but only as an executive traveling with a big group, staying in big hotels and traveling in black cars insulated from the city.   This time I want to see the pink city on a smaller scale.  Walking through the streets and soaking up the sights like a local.

 Chefchaouen, Morocco

Also known as The Blue City.  I would like to take a quick and quiet trip to this little village and just walk the alleys, admire the mountain views, listen to the call to prayer and enjoy my moroccan mint tea at a streetside cafe.

This is my year to explore California like a tourist.  While I've travelled other American states and cities in depth, I've left much of my home state's beauty unexplored.
