WELCOME to OUR CIRCLE of AVID WORLD TRAVELERS/FRIENDS!!
LIFE is a JOURNEY, not a DESTINATION, and it is NOT measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the PEOPLES, PLACES and AWESOME MOMENTS that take our breath away!! Be an AVID WORLD TRAVELER (NOT a TOURIST) - internationally and domestically - with an insightful GLOBAL view of our WORLD!!
- We're a nonprofit social group of professional, mature, respectful, active, friendly and responsible Avid World Travelers with diverse cultural/ethnic backgrounds, marital status, age ranges (20s - 70s) and professions, who simply share an incurable deep passion for world exploration and learn from one another through countless travel presentations prepared by our dedicated Members/Speakers.
- Our Organizer and Speakers (fellow members) are NOT compensated for their VOLUNTARY services dedicated to our group.
- Traveling together as a group is NOTour main focus; however, many members have developed great friendships with each other through our countless meetups in the past, and subsequently traveled together as well.
- We are NOT a "VIRTUAL" but a "FACE-TO-FACE" Meetup Group and only retain those "QUALITY" members among us!!
- Our membership is FREE; however, we take our members' "ACTIVE ATTENDANCE" requirement (at least SIX of our nearly 45 annual events - averaging ONCE EVERY TWO MONTHS) seriously as PROFESSIONALS would. REMINDER: Our Removal Policy for NO-SHOW, LATE CANCELLATIONS and EVENT CRASHING: THREE of EACH or COMBINED violations WITHIN a 4-month period from the initial noncompliance.
- We encourage you to step out of your "COMFORT ZONE" and join our "SPEAKERS' HALL OF FAME" to create your own legacy by proactively sharing your very own and exciting travel experiences with your fellow World Travelers in a very supportive environment, while reliving those wonderful memories!!

"Life....is 10% of "what happens to us" and 90% of "how we react to it"!! Our "attitude", positive or negative, will most likely determine the outcome of our life events during our journey on earth. We live in the reality of "today" resulted from the decisions we made "yesterday". So safeguard our "attitude" with extreme care!!" - Anonymous
