Portals to new worlds and sites
The internet has become such a wonderful tool for learning and traveling. I have found many wonderful sites that have helped me learn Gaelic, shared recipes, discovered places to put on my "travel in the future" list and have met many interesting people. Here is my list of sites and I am always looking for new ones to add.
