Silk & Spice Adventures
Thanks for joining me on an amazing journey through time and fabled lands spanning over 3000 years from Ancient Africa and Classical Ethiopia. I love adventure, travel, culture, and history. I'm the author of the Children's Educational Travel Series - The Hidden Empire and the Musical Adventures of Saint George. Happy Exploring!
