I’m Thanking You Today, And I’ve Got 100,000 Miles Burning A Hole In My Pocket

ByEdward Pizzarello

I spend so much time on the road throughout the year.  I’m so thankful to be home with my family today.  There’s a fire going in the fireplace and the kids are watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.  The turkey is in the oven and I’ll be doing some more cooking shortly after I finish this post.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2008.  Back then, it was just my daily musings.  I wrote about whatever I wanted, not just travel.  I can recall when the new train was getting ready to open at Washington-Dulles Airport.  I was able to sneak in and get some early pictures.  Over 100 people showed up that day to read my blog post.  I couldn’t believe it.  That’s what makes it even more incredible that thousands of folks show up here every day to read what I have to say.

For that, I’m thankful.  You’ve probably seen my occasional giveaways to readers, but today I’m paying it forward.  It won’t cost you anything to help, but I do need a bit of help from you.

You may have read this morning that I donated 25,000 miles to help someone in need get home for the holidays.

Abroaders is helping tons of people get home for the holidays, and I want to help spread the word.

I’ll be donating 100 miles through Abroaders for each of these activities today (spread the word) up to a total limit of 100,000 miles:

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.

    Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. A few of us have been around from the beginning, and enjoy reading the blog. Thanks for making the donation. I hope it cost you a bundle of miles. 😉
