Glenda Gerde is an experienced educator with a passion for student-focused collaboration, a strong work ethic, and a good sense of humor. She loves the work that she does in education because she believes that children hold the key to unlocking a better future. Glenda has been blessed enough to have had the opportunity to spread her knowledge and influence to corners across the globe. She's taught in high schools and elementary schools in Arizona, Washington state, California, and Hawaii. Every place she goes, Glenda Gerde is fascinated by the differences and individual beauties she sees in each new location, but no matter where she goes she sees one constant: children are driven by curiosity and a desire to learn. A few years back, Glenda had the opportunity to take her educational skills abroad and teach higher education, so she moved to Turkey with her dog, Mr. Happy, to teach at SEV American College in Istanbul. Glenda has since returned to the United States and is currently living in Phoenix, Arizona. When she's not hard at work teaching others and sharing her knowledge, Glenda enjoys traveling the world and seeing new sights. She refers to herself as a "citizen of the world" and always looks for new opportunities to learn about other places and cultures. Glenda lived in Istanbul, Hawaii, and every other state in which she's taught, but she hasn't limited her travel experience to her career. She's also visited France — specifically Avignon and Sète — as well as London, England. Glenda Gerde's love for travel, at its core, is tied closely with her love for education. As a "citizen of the world," Glenda views the globe as her classroom where she hungrily seeks new information. At the heart of it all, she...

See the World’s Most Beautiful Places by Drone
There is so much splendor to be behold in the world today, but not without the costs that accompany it. While you can always watch videos of people’s trips online, they’re all-too-often filled with shots of friends and family members while excluding the content you actually want to see: the landscape. Luckily, with the rapidly rising popularity of drones, it’s now easier than ever to get your hands on some high-quality footage of beautiful places from the air, providing an aerial view of some of the loveliest places on earth. Let’s take a look at the top five most beautiful places on the planet through the lens of a drone.
Kauai, Hawaii
youtube
This Hawaiian island is breathtaking in all regards. While it makes for a sometimes expensive travel destination, its glory and splendor is not restricted solely to those who have a plane ticket. Soar through tropics more breathtaking than you could have ever imagined, and take a bird’s eye view of this gorgeous U.S. state with otherworldly beauty. Kauai is the most magical of the Hawaiian Islands, I believe, having lived there at one time and returned often to relish in the most beautiful beaches, one after the next. If it starts raining at one beach, just pack your things and drive 10 minutes to the next beautiful beach in the next climate zone. But if you can’t touch the sand yourself, soar over the glory of the island through the lens of a drone.
Keukenhof, The Netherlands
youtube
Keukenhof translates to ‘kitchen gardens’ as it was originally constructed to grow herbs for use in the castle of Jacqueline, Countess of Hainaut. Now, with the floral arrangements and fields displayed for tourist view, it looks more like the kitchen of nature herself, concocting all sorts of stunning blooms and blossoms. And of course, being in Holland, there are more tulips than you could possibly imagine. The gardens are only open between mid-March and mid-May, with the best time to see the tulips being mid-April, weather permitting.
Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia
youtube
This surreal landscape is one that you won’t find anywhere else on earth. During the rainy season, this salt flat turns from a barren plain to gigantic mirror, reflecting everything standing on it perfectly below.
Sa Pa, Vietnam
youtube
Travel to Vietnam through a bird’s eye view with this incredible drone footage of the vertical rice terraces that cover the Muong Hoa Valley just below the Chinese border. Although the area is becoming increasingly industrialized due to the influx of tourists, those visiting Sa Pa are likely not trying to stay in the town for too long before they venture out into the lush rice fields and view the spectacular scenery.
Technology has opened the joy of seeing most anything in our world from the comfort of your couch. Use remote viewing for pleasure, but keep your suitcase packed because there is nothing like taking your own two legs for a walk where the smells and sounds and thrill of discovering what is around the next corner fills your every cell with glee.
