In 1997, I joined friends for dinner, and, unexpectedly, an evening out dancing. I fell in love with social dancing, East Coast Swing and Lindy Hop.  Over the next few years, I attended numerous lessons, workshops and weekend and week-long events.  I was blessed to take classes and workshops with the great Frankie Manning, and I was inspired by his never-ending joy and devotion to spreading that joy on the dance floor.  In the coming years I would travel to and dance in destinations like Catalina Island, California; Washington, D.C.; Beijing; the Great Wall of China; Hoi An, Vietnam; Singapore; Malalysia; Bangkok, Thailand; Hong Kong; Taipei; Herrang, Sweden; Central European Swing Dance Camp in Nova, Hungary; Brasov, Romania (we danced in Dracula's Castle as part of Transwingvania); a beautiful beach town in Spain and others!

 

In early 2020, I went on a marvelous Lindy Hop cruise and thought, "this is heaven!"  Delicious food, comfortable lodgings, exotic ports and making new friends while dancing and dancing some more.  And I fell in love with cruising almost as much as with dancing! More recently, I was looking at the above photo of friends I danced with on the beach in Vietnam.  I thought, "This is the kind of experience, this joy, is what I want to help create for others." 

 

This is how Triple Step Travel was born.  I didn't realize before I started doing research that cruising can be so very affordable.  I love bargains, and I intend to make these adventures as cost effective as possible.  Do you want to create memories of a lifetime, have fun traveling and dancing with new friends who share the same passion for dance?  Come along, it's going to be fun!
