In 1982, I took my first trip to europe and never stopped traveling. I spent a year in Amsterdam (1990-1991) where I received a Master of Law in European Community and International Business Law. I actually hoped to stay abroad and work, but the recession got in the way. I traveled whenever I could. From 1989 forward, I went to Mykonos at least once a year - totally 20 times. I went to Mainland china in 1999 to accompany my sister who adopted her daughter at that time.I also love running - and a number of years ago realized that I could combine that with my love of travel. I’ve run marathons in four countries (US, Panama, France and Spain), and have run marathons in 49 States (the 50th state - New Hampshire - I’ll complete in October).“Kathy also had written a song for an entry, which went a little something like this:(sung to the tune of the Letter, by the Box Tops)Gimme a first class ticket for an aeroplane,Ain’t got time to take economy.Lonely days are gone, I’m a-goin’ home,…‘Cause my point guy just a-won me a frequent flyer’s dream prizeI don’t care how much money I gotta spend,Got to get back to the Star Alliance Mega Do 3,Lonely days are gone, I’m a-goin’ home,‘Cause my point guy just a-won me a frequent flyer’s dream prize.Well, next to the point guy, I’m gonna be the best seatmateThe kind you couldn’t forget about no mo’.Listen mister Kelly can’t you see I got to get backTo my Star Alliance Mega Do 3 once a-mo’–anyway…Gimme a first class ticket for an aeroplane,Ain’t got time to take economy.Lonely days are gone, I’m a-goin’ home,‘Cause my point guy just a-won me a frequent flyer’s dream prize.If for some reason Kathy can’t make it, the alternate is:Nick Handy: I’d be a great seatmate because I’m Good Enough, I’m Smart Enough, and Doggone It, People Like Me!Sign up for our daily newsletterEmail addressSign upI would like to subscribe to The Points Guy newsletters and special email promotions.
