My youngest (11) has grown up traveling. Finn has been to 5 countries and 17 different US states. He doesn’t mind the 6 + hour car rides, the hiking, sleeping in a tent during a rainstorm and helping set up camp. I thought it would be fun to ask him a few travel related questions since he has become such a travel expert. I hope you enjoy his answers as much as I do!

Probably meeting other people and interacting with other people.
What is your least favorite memory?
getting scammed from a taxi driver in Vietnam or the hotel fire in Holbox, Mexico.

annoy people…. haha no looking out of the window, playing with a ball or being on my Nintendo Switch
