About Me

I believe that life is a patchwork of experiences. I am a retired PhD chemist and traveling the world is one of my deepest passions which continues to add to my ever growing quilt of life experiences. I like to focus my traveling lens on history, art, architecture, nature, cruising, and soft adventures with a touch of luxury. I also love the challenge of taking beautiful photos that capture the essence of the location I am visiting. And I like to make quilts inspired by my travels.

My experiences.

My Voice.

Your Inspiration.

Enjoy. Rose Palmer
