Go ahead and take “1wrongturn”

For many, “1wrongturn” is a phrase that implies something scary, unknown, and unpredictable. However, if you choose to look at things differently, “1wrongturn” can lead to all kinds of unknown and unpredictable discoveries that are wonderful and exciting.

Most people spend a great deal of time trying to avoid wrong turns by planning in advance, thinking things through and trying to anticipate all possibilities. I am one of those “planning” people. I like to plan in advance, research options, engage in detailed exploration before I make major decisions.

However, I believe that there are times you just have to throw caution to the wind and allow yourself to take “1wrongturn”. “1wrongturn” can lead to a discovery of a lifetime, new opportunities, and possibly “One Right Turn” (and I don’t mean the opposite of left).

“1wrongturn” can apply to many situations. In 1wrongturn.com, the focus is on travel and what you can discover if you allow yourself to take “1wrongturn.”

“I believe there are times you just have to throw caution to the wind and allow yourself to take “1wrongturn.”

In my experience, the best travel memories usually involve the unexpected: a quaint café, a funky local clothing designer, a discussion with a local bookstore owner, or a lovely park where you stopped to have a picnic.

To help you feel comfortable to make that “1wrongturn,” I have created a “one-stop-travel-shop” on which you will find destination specific “1wrongturn” finds; links to informative websites; and, videos and audio podcast recordings (eventually). Most importantly, I want to feature your “1wrongturn” finds, experiences and recommendations.

I hope you enjoy 1wrongturn.com and find what you are looking for as well as something unexpected. I look forward to taking “1wrongturn” together.
