Bill & Michelle DeKeyser's Travels

a traveling as a couple from Trabuco Canyon http://www.photoshow.com/members/mlenichek

Michelle and I got married on Dec 30th 2008 at the Observation Deck of the Q1 Tower in Surfer's Paradise, Australia. We managed to work our wedding into our Gap year, were we took the time to go out and explore the world. But this is not new for us, since we met each other in the Travel Section at Barnes and Noble we have been off exploring. Our travels have taken us from Belize to Tahiti to Egypt to Nepal all in preparation for our year of our journey around the world. When not traveling they call Trabuco Canyon, California home. Michelle is a high school English teacher at Patroit High. Bill worked in Sales and Engineering at Fluidmaster, prior to "practicing" his retirement by taking a year off to travel.

Bill & Michelle DeKeyser has visited 5 places in 123 cities in 35 countries and has written 2 travel blogs with 130 entries.
