Where have we traveled? 
​
We are often asked if we have ever been to a particular orphanage, and the answer is almost always yes!  While there may be a couple in remote regions that we have not yet visited ​we have a pretty amazing track record of opening doors, even when the facility may not have allowed visitors at the time of the adoption.
