Why do you wish to join this community?

I inherited my family’s entire collection of National Geo mags, almost every year and near complete, since the 60’s. Some earlier. Wanting to know if they can be sold or what to do with them.

About Me:

I grew up reading these mags cover to cover! They sparked my interest in SO many things! I always wanted to travel the world to see all these amazing things or places featured! Luckily, my father was an international pilot, so I was able to travel extensively! My sister and I have a travel website we created featuring beautiful places, people, and things we have encountered! It’s called www.everydayvoyager.com

Favorite National Geographic publication:

I was always fascinated by the discovery of the new found native tribes in the Amazon or anything with space! I wanted to be an astronaut! I learned so much about life from these publications!

Favorite travel destination:

Paris! But I recently traveled to Singapore and Bali. I was surprised at the change from 30 years ago, from my first trip. It went from remote island chain in Indonesia and Malaysia, to bustling wealthy city and overcrowded island of Bali with many tourists and scooters.
