Alan McNairn at Arles - Author's wife
I am an inveterate traveler with a family. Thus I have to divide my time as a tourist between pursuing what I studied as a career in art history and archaeology and what my 13 year old daughter and wife are interested in.
So my experiences while traveling include museums, galleries and architectural monuments as well as street performances, scenery, shopping, beach combing and eating more fast food than slow food.
