Welcome to Tori Tidbits!

This site is the place to be if you want to join us on our around-the-world adventure.

I say “our” because it’s the family, but it’s Tori Tidbits because it’s whatever tidbits I, Tori, wish to share at any given time. Everything will be written by me unless a post says otherwise, so any and all mistakes are my own.

I’ll update about where we’re going, things we do, places we see, mishaps that occur along the way, and anything I feel like sharing. You’ll get some photos. As part of my preparation for the trip – and because I couldn’t wait to visit some locations – I read books and watched movies that were set in various locations. Occasionally, I’ll share reviews of some of those books or movies in case you, too, would like to be an armchair traveler beyond simply reading our blog. For example, I read Finding Nouf by Zoë Ferraris in preparation for Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. We’re actually no longer going there, but you can click on the link and see my review regardless.

I don’t guarantee that you’ll find my writings enjoyable or insightful. Sometimes they’ll be overly long and rambling. Sometimes I’ll leave you wanting more detail. There will be some information I share that I found fascinating that you might find boring. Photos will likely look unprofessional because – as it turns out – I’m not a professional photographer. This is mostly just a spot for us to document our travels, share some lessons learned, and keep family and friends updated as we go on this adventure of a lifetime.

I hope you enjoy the things I decide to share. 🙂
