Welcome to my new weekly newsletter, Celebration Travel Journeys! I'm so glad you're here!

We all share a birthday, and at some point in our lives we've celebrated birthdays, anniversaries or a special event by enjoying time with family and friends at a favorite restaurant or with a party; but, have you ever taken a vacation wrapped around a special event?  When you combine the special events in your life with travel - and spend them with the people who mean the most - that's when something truly special happens. Travel is my PASSION, and I want that passion to inspire others to go outside their comfort zone, see the world and celebrate.

Travel often - as far and as widely as possible. Find out how other people live, eat and cook. Learn from them wherever you go. This newsletter will allow me to share interviews with interesting people, travel experiences, as well as to provide travel information, tips and exchange ideas. The world's the limit!

Did you know that annual vacations can often improve your health, the quality of your daily lives, your productivity and your commitment to your families, career and your business? Even the anticipation of vacation travel generates an increase in positive feelings about one's life as a whole, family, economic situation and health.

Join me on this amazing journey as we celebrate milestone events, travel and this amazing place we call earth. Create your own happiness and above all make every moment count. Life's too short so you may as well travel. Welcome! Bienvenue! Willkommen! Benvenuto! Bienvenido!  In any language... it's welcome.

Best,

(Michelle & Keiko Matsui - contemporary jazz pianist)
