April 6th: Dr. John Lenhart, When Putin was a Friend of St. Petersburg College -- Dr. Lenhart will share experiences as part of an educational exchange delegation in 2003 commemorating the centennial of St. Petersburg, Florida with St. Petersburg, Russia. The delegation had access to places that tourists do not normally see. Enjoy this fascinating insight into the relationship during Putin’s early years as president of the Russian Federation.

May 4th: Susan Peelman, Around the World in a Private Jet – Luxury abounds with TCS World Travel’s all-inclusive tour of the world aboard a private jet. Only 52 travel companions flew in a specially outfitted Airbus, stayed in the finest 6-star hotels, dined in the finest restaurants, and experienced local sights on multiple continents. Come see the ultimate, once in a lifetime, luxury adventure!

The mission of the Passport Club is to share travel experiences, plans, and bucket lists for travel domestic or international; by land, sea or air; self-drive or sit back and let others do the work.
