info_outlineThis week's solo show is coming to you from my first day in Porto, Portugal.
It has been quite the week, which led me to asking my Virtual Assistant A.K.A Google, for help, more often than usual.
This got me to thinking that there are lessons we learn and lessons we live as we use this powerful search engine for guidance and advice.
This week I share with you ten things that I have asked Google, that I probably would not have needed to ask if I was not traveling.
I hope you find some humor, some travel tips, and a couple of life lessons in here, that will help you continue to live in possibility.
