One of her most memorable trips was throughout the Holy Land in the Middle East and Medjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Over the years, she traveled to many places with her loving daughter and close friends.  Aside from her travels around the world, she loved visiting her family in San Salvador, El Salvador and Santiago, Chile.
