Hello Friends and Happy April,

I hope this message finds you doing well. March was another quick month for us, and I'm excited as it's feeling like spring is right around the corner.

We had to put away our ice skates, but still spent plenty of time outside. One of the things that my family started doing right when Covid hit last year was to pick up trash on our walks. It's always noticeable in late winter/early spring after the snow melts. This year we wised up bought some grippers to help make things easier on our backs. Peter loves holding the garbage bag.

I'm lucky to be affiliated with a group of travel agents that always work to "give back", whenever we are visiting destinations. Last year while in Jamaica, we provided two suitcases full of school supplies to a local school and had the opportunity to meet with the teachers and students.

In Puerto Vallarta last month, we met with employees of a charity called Pasitos de Luz. This is an organization that provides daycare and therapy services for children with special needs from low income households in the Puerto Vallarta area. My group of agents had a genuine connection with them and their mission. We were happy to donate to their charity, and are making plans for our next visit to volunteer for a day at their facility.

If you have a vacation coming up, and want to know more about giving back in a specific destination, please don't hesitate to let me know. I personally am trying to vet each company that I can recommend. If we all do a little, it will add up to a great positive impact.

In other travel news, a number of you are going on or returning from spring break vacations. After all the cancellations from last year, this gives me hope and reassurance that travel is returning stronger than ever. As always, feel free to reach out with any questions or travel needs. I'm here and happy to help.

Have a great weekend,

Brian
