Comedian Jeff Capri seemed to be destined for the footlights. As the son of legendary Catskills comic Dick Capri, Jeff would join his father onstage as young as ten years old. But his parents split early in Jeff's life, and while his Dad stayed in the New York area, Jeff grew up in suburban Orange County, California, about an hour from Hollywood. Splitting his time between coasts meant Jeff was no stranger to airports and travel. As fate would have it, Jeff ended up in the comedy clubs touring the country, then began traveling internationally performing for the troops. For the last few years, he's done the bulk of his performing on cruise ships. We were lucky enough to catch Jeff a day before he left for Hawaii to meet yet another ship and bring the laughs. Not a bad gig! Thanks, Jeff!

Ian hails from Berwick-Upon-Tweed, the northernmost city in England, just across the Scotland border. The Northumberland town has changed hands between England and Scotland multiple times over centuries, resulting in a hybrid culture (and accent!) As an adult, Ian consistently crossed borders for work and pleasure. He's made over 20 visits to the US, toured extensively throughout Europe, and even made it Down Under to Australia and New Zealand. Now retired and volunteering at his local dog shelter, Ian continues to travel, and recently returned from a cruise around Spain.

Change is something that Chloe Kelly finds quite familiar. Growing up in England, Chloe never felt completely comfortable, no matter how many different careers, homes, or relationships she tried on for size- a situation that led down the dark path of addiction and depression. It wasn’t until she made the decision at 45 to transition to female, that Chloe finally began to see light at the end of the tunnel. And with her rebirth, she decided that travel was going to play a major role. She left a 25-year corporate career and started traveling solo. Over the last few years, she’s traveled throughout Europe, Central Asia, and beyond. She currently lives in Buenos Aires while writing her travel memoir. We chat about why travel became so important to her after transitioning, what it’s like traveling as a trans woman, and the places and experiences that have affected her the most.
