I’m leaning more toward India, but my husband’s thinking South America. We really need to decide soon. How many countries have you visited? Our most recent trip to Burma [Myanmar] was number 94 or 95. What destination is still on your bucket list? Well, my husband and I need to negotiate. I would love to do Antarctica, and he wants to go back to Vietnam. We did a tour of Southeast Asia, traveling to Bangkok and Cambodia, but didn’t get to stay very long in Vietnam. Do you have a favorite country? People ask that all the time, and it’s hard to choose. We really enjoy Southeast Asia. We like the food, the people, the mystery of the culture, and the scenery. Everything there is so different from what we’re used to — and that’s one of the things we travel for.

He wanted to travel while we were young and bring the kids, so we could climb a mountain in Switzerland or ride horses across the savanna in Africa. Do you have a favorite part of the flying experience? This may sound strange, but I love the smell of an airport. You walk into it and there’s that smell of jet fuel and excitement. It says to me, “This is great, we’re going somewhere.” Window or aisle? When we’re in Coach, opposite aisle seats because it allows for more flexibility and more room.
