Hi I’m Bobby Boomer. Welcome to my corner of the Internet.
I’ve been helping friends travel for decades and this site is my attempt to post a lot of that information and news for everyone with Internet access.
I’ve been to almost sixty countries and have visited five continents. I hope to add to both those totals in the coming years.
My booty has sat in airplane seats for over 2 and 1/2 million miles and I’ve been on over twenty cruises – ocean and river.
I’ve been on long train trips, rented over five hundred rental cars (that’s just a guess), slept over 1,000 nights in hotels (another guess), driven around the U.S.A. and Europe, attended six Olympic games (including once as an official delegate with an “All Access Pass” – but that’s another story), one Super Bowl, dozens of PGA golf tournaments and much more. My life is Blessed.
Before I retired, I owned a 19 million dollar Internet business that printed images on hundreds of products including canvas, slate, metal, paper, etc. I sold that business in 2012 and tried to retire but the entrepreneur in me started another business importing items from Asia Pacific.
Prior to the printing business, I owned a business that made lapel pins, coins, belt buckles, badges, etc. We made thousands of Olympic pins and pins for NBC TV shows. I sold that business in 2007.
You may have seen me on NBC’s The Today Show, as well as dozens of local TV news shows and newspapers including The Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, and many more.
When I’m not traveling, I may be volunteering at a wonderful NGO that supports an orphanage in Haiti, a college academy, medical clinics and many other helpful projects around the world.. You’ll see some posts here about some of my trips to Haiti.
My priorities in life are the five “F’s.” Father (God The Father), Family, Friends, Fairways (as in golf) and Fun.
Thanks for stopping by and I welcome your comments. I would love to hear from you.
Bobby Boomer
