I grew up in the US (CT, MA, drove x-country) and I have lived in Taipei, Taiwan (2.5yrs) and for the past four years I have lived in northwest Ireland (Sligo, Donegal). I've traveled to many countries from these points, and I am constantly revising my understanding of the world.

I learned about WikiTravel through CommunityWiki and MeatballWiki

My Todo List
I've recently returned from a two week trip to Cuba with a friend (who had been there before) and his three daughters. There are some good resources on the web, but I wanted to contribute specifically to Wiki Travel and expand the information about Cuba.


 * Adding in photos of places we saw.
 * Descriptions of out-of-the-way but lovely Camagüey and Sanctus Spiritus which are not so heavily touristed.
 * Recommendations for casa particulares.
 * Tips and ideas for travelling in Cuba with children. (of which there is very little available on the web).
 * Some caveats for the traveler and corrections to information posted on other websites.
