As we all know, the year of 2020
was not the greatest year for the world in general. Yet, it did see an up-swing in self sufficient traveling and travelers. More people hit the road destined for other places to visit. Trying to social distance and still remain sane. They were ready to visit places that
were not necessarily close to the norm.
GLT & The Lakopi House located in the Big Bend of Texas, was one of them. It was near a beautiful national park, and a cultural habitat, born from both sides.
And I was one, who had been lucky in finding, guiding, and experiencing this place for 20 years plus already.
As I have been known to say, "I was social distancing, since before it was cool."
At the time COVID-19 was being announced, I was hosting a couple long-time friends who were professional RV'ers. They introduced me to a group known as Harvest Hosts. A semi-small, but ever-growing operation connecting the traveling community with business' across America. Although I had been working with the RV community in various ways already, they convinced me that it would be a good addition to the business known as Get Lost Tours (GLT) that had been created; so I started hosting while providing tours. It was a match made from heaven. I opened up the doors to The Lakopi House further, and continue to experience wonderful people from all walks, places, and qualities in life; with One thing in common. They are all part of the RV community. Needless to say, my friends were right. Years later, I am still enjoying the hosting and touring.
I myself was, and to some degree, still am, a traveler. The nomadic nature was born within me from birth. From my time as a military brat moving from place to place, to my introduction into the world of guiding, I personally could not have found a more simpatico community to serve. Yes, I am established with a home now, and yes, I will serve ALL. However, the RV community holds a special place in my heart, and I believe it will till my end on this planet. Thank you fellow travelers. May we all B & Stay Well.
Now, let's meet up and experience Big Bend Texas together! See ya soon!
On Purpose,,, For a Purpose
