Stories - Quiltripping

As a trained scientist with degrees in chemistry and biology I value and respect the recommendations of the technical experts with regard to travel during the Covid-19 pandemic. I have put off all travel for over a year until I was vaccinated. Now that I have received my vaccine I will start to venture out into the broader world again, but I will continue to wear a mask and practice social distancing in public and will follow all local safety guidelines during my travels. Stay safe.

I believe that life is a patchwork of experiences. I am a retired PhD chemist with a lifelong passion for travel, photography and quilting. I love learning about and sharing the unique cultural and scenic aspects of the places I visit. I am always on the lookout for unique experiences and like to focus my traveling lens on history, art, architecture, nature 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
