Wendy: Born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I still suffer from LA culture shock on occasion. As general manager of Le Dufy Hotel in the 80's, associates referred to me as 'Gidget'. Inspired by my fearless globe-trotting Aunt Evie, I took the leap to move to Los Angeles and have been traveling ever since in order to "get out of Dodge". This blog is dedicated to her love of travel and her adventurous spirit.
