What we’re about
This meetup is a collective of creative and curious souls who want to be inspired by the world and each other. Whether it’s a visit to a Museum in New York, a concert in Princeton or watching the sunset on a junk in Ha Long Bay, we can share the wonders together.
A little about me…. I’ve been a professional photographer for over 18 years. I’ve actually been designated a Master photographer by the Professional Photographers of America (PPA). I am one of the few women to have this distinction. I’m also a lover of travel, food, art, music, theater and great conversation! This group should satisfy my many pleasures. I presently also facilitate Princeton Fine Dining also. Whether you are a painter, a writer, a photographer, a musician, a gourmet, an architect or just someone who enjoys all the wonders and culture of the world, please join me. You may reside in Princeton or San Francisco; it really doesn’t matter. This group is about travel, beauty, culture and camaraderie.
Join me for the adventure.

Food & Wine Tour of Sicily
Sicily, Central Sicily, CT, ITDETAILS
Last fall we all enjoyed our fabulous tour of Southern Italy. Everyone loved it so much we all wanted to do Sicily in 2025. Linda Garfano, our tour director wanted to put together a very special tour for us and so many of us want to go. This is a small private custom tour only open to our Wanderers and their family and friends. HURRY! Only a few spots remaining!
I've been to Sicily before and it was magic! So diverse in beauty and history. I would love to return. In the midst of the Mediterranean, discover an island with personality all its own—full of flavor and teeming with one-of-a-kind art and architecture. Whether you’re visiting Sicily for its multicultural history or its delectable street food, the island has a rustic charm that sets it apart from mainland Italy. Experience the enigma, ancient ruins, and natural beauty of this Mediterranean destination, journeying through Palermo, Syracuse, and Taormina—and indulge in the flavors and culinary traditions that make Sicily so utterly and deliciously unique.

TRAVEL WITH FRIENDS AND FINDING A ROOMMATE:
It's always more fun when we know the people we are traveling with. For those in New Jersey we will have meetups every 4 months at restaurants prior to our trip (exclusive to our travelers) so members can get to know one another. I think it's one of the very special benefits of a meetup travel tour. It will also be an opportunity for you to meet other travelers who are traveling single and might want to share a room. It's a wonderful way to find that perfect roommate! On all my past tours, everyone who wanted a roommate found a roommate!
WHY AM I ON THE WAITING LIST?
Everyone who signs up for the tour will be first put on the waiting list. As soon as you contact the company and leave your deposit you need to email me at mlabbancz@gmail.com and let me know you left your deposit and I will switch you to going. There is a limited amount of spots available on this small group tour and being on the waiting list does not guarantee a spot. Please only join the wait list if you are planning on leaving a deposit in the next day or two. Don't join the wait list because you think it sounds like a fun trip you will NOT be doing.

Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere
AMC MarketFair 10, 3521 US-1, Princeton, NJ, USCalling all Jersey Girls (and boys) The Springsteen movie is finally here!
The film chronicles the making of Bruce Springsteen's 1982 Nebraska album when he was a young musician on the cusp of global superstardom, struggling to reconcile the pressures of success with the ghosts of his past. Recorded on a 4-track recorder in Springsteen's New Jersey bedroom, the album marked a pivotal time in his life and is considered one of his most enduring works—a stark, somber acoustic record portraying the lives of blue collar workers who try to succeed in life but fail at every turn, while searching for a deliverance that never comes.
TICKETS: You need to purchase your tickets ahead of time. This is likely to be a sell our event (Just like her tour). Let's try to sit together. I purchased seat E5. You can purchase your ticket at the following link:
https://www.amctheatres.com/showtimes/136638202/seatsDrinks and such: I thought after the movie we could go for a drink and a little food. Why don't we go to Brick House Tavern + Tap which is located close by in the MarketFair Mall. Let's have a beer and toast to BRUCE!
