My beautiful niece Lili will soon be joining the Future Gringo team contributing first hand travel reports from around the globe. That is as after she finishes celebrating her big first birthday bash this weekend.

In that year she’s traveled to North Carolina, Florida, and a few weekend road trips across the border to Canada. Not a bad start! She also has plans to come visit Colorado - so I’ll have to start hunting for some deals on snowboard lessons.

However she won’t be sending in many airport/airplane reports, as according to my sister when the wheels go up she promptly visits the sandman.

Happy Birthday Lili!
