Throughout the years my affair with orchids has taken me all over
the world and will continue to. I have met many interesting people doing this
and some have become dear friends. The travel has not always been easy all the
time. During the flood year in Thailand, I had to navigate around Bangkok;
everything was hard. Shops had very low stocks of the basics and nearly every
hotel we tried was full due to so many people being displaced at the
time. Having said that, my travels have not always been stressful I wouldn't
change any of it even if I could.
