The Most Rewarding Travel Experience Ever – Helping the Syrian Refugees in Turkey
My travel article this time will focus on a special type of travel that has changed my family in the most profound way and has been the most rewarding travel experience we have ever had – volunteering where it is desperately needed. As you probably know, my family travels full-time and are always wanting to experience new places and adventures. Our original travel plans for September had included extensive travel throughout Romania and Portugal – two countries we had yet to explore as a family. However, when we heard the news about the terrible refugee crisis in Turkey, we changed our plans and headed straight to Bodrum, Turkey to help…

Creating the Ultimate Man Cave
We have dreamed, well, at least I have, of creating our garage into an extra room in the house with bean bags, old-school arcade games like PacMan and Galaga and a game station. I know my husband would love to have a putting green put in there as well! Best Buy has come up with some really cool ideas for creating the ultimate Man Cave.

Bitdefender BOX for Your Home Security Protection
Consumer security is constantly changing. What does that mean for your devices and not just your PC or MAC. I’m talking about everything: phones, computers, iDevices, Android products, even your gaming system (think PlayStation or others that use wi-fi), even your household products or your digital streaming device (Roku for example). Home security should be something you are thinking about and wanting to make secure. A top priority. With your computer you most likely use software (antivirus/malware). Scary times. A new product is looking to change and revolutionize this and the way you think about it. It’s like a security solution for the “Internet of Things”. There are so many…
