About
Who has the time and money to travel? Baby boomers. And, we’re not content to sit on the bus and watch the world go by. We bring energy to our travels. Scuba dive, hike, learn, bike, volunteer, fly fish, drive, explore, cruise. Name an activity, there’s a baby boomer wanting to do it.
At My Itchy Travel Feet, baby boom
ers will find valuable information to help plan their next adventure. Baby boomers Donna L. Hull (she’s the writer) and Alan Hull (he’s the photographer) travel the world recording their experiences with words, photos and videos so that you’ll know exactly what to expect. Browse through content on international and domestic destinations. Read the lodging and dining reviews. Discover new adventures whether it’s a luxury cruise or a rough and tumble jeep experience. Learn trip planning strategies that will make your journey easier. Find out about new travel products, then enter a contest to win them.
New content is published on Tuesday and Thursday with a special photo post on Saturday that will inspire you to get up off the couch and go. Despite an intensive travel schedule, don’t be surprised if Donna sneaks in an extra post when she can. There’s so much to tell you. But you won’t find articles written from press releases; approximately 85% of the information published at My Itchy Travel Feet is based upon Donna and/or Alan’s personal travel experiences. That goes for the photos, too.
Donna L. Hull specializes in writing travel and human interest content for online and print publications. Visit her clips page to see for yourself. A newbie photographer who uses a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18, she enjoys nothing more than a friendly competition with Alan to see who can capture the best travel image. A bit of a princess, Donna appreciates adventure as long as she returns to comfortable accommodations at the end of the day. She’ll try any adventure once, but don’t ask her to stand on a mountain pass with drop offs on each side. Sorry, but she’s afraid of heights.
Alan Hull loves a road trip. When Donna sees maps spread out on the dining room table, she knows what’s coming. An expert planner, Alan maps out the trips before turning the plans over to Donna for a little fine tuning. But don’t think he’s all jeans and cowboy boots. Alan is just as comfortable wearing his white dinner jacket on a luxury cruise ship. What’s in his camera bag? A Cannon 5D and multiple lenses.

Hi Donna,
You know that FB and Titter (intentional mispelling) are not allowed from this country, right? We're about to cross into Yunnan via Shangri-La.

Hi Claire,
Yes, I know.
I can't wait to hear about Shangri-La. It's a place that I've always
wanted to visit.
