I am excited to announce my next vacation: Easter Island, Chile. Easter Island is the most remote inhabited island in the world. It’s known for having 600 large monolithic stone statues, called moai, on the island; some of which are 60-feet tall. I’ll be heading there April 19 to 27. If you want to come along, let me know.
