Experience
Vickie's writing career began in 1998 with her first published article at Suite101. When she wrote content for an article about hotels near and far, she knew this was the niche that would satisfy her interest in learning more about destinations around the world and what each has to offer travelers. For her own traveling experience, it's been a wild ride. From train travel to New Orleans to see the King Tut exhibit and motorcycle traveling in the south to canoeing the Chattahoochee River in Georgia and camping in Chincoteague, Virginia where the wild horses roam free, Vickie's writing journey has been an adventure of a lifetime.
