Travel writer Rick Steves will lecture in OKC

So many of the trips we have taken have been “flying by the seat of your pants,” but when we began to plan our trip to Italy, I wasn’t sure what might be the best resource for learning more about our destination.

I asked around and was advised that I should purchase a Rick Steves guide. I did and found it to be just what we needed. No wonder Rick Steves’ Italy has been the best-selling international guidebook sold in the United States.

Rick Steves has been a travel writer since 1980. He has written more than 50 guidebooks and other travel resources. He also writes a syndicated newspaper column on travel and often appears on TV as an authority on travel in Europe. His column appears periodically in The Oklahoman and on NewsOK.com.

And now, we in the Oklahoma City area have the opportunity to learn from Rick Steves in person! He will be lecturing at Oklahoma Christian University on March 10, 2012. This event will be at 7:00 p.m. in Hardeman Auditorium at the university. Steves’ topic will be “Cultivating a Global Perspective through Travel.”

If you would like to attend the Rick Steves lecture, tickets are $10 and are available by calling 405-425-5488 or emailing ricksteves@oc.edu. For more information go online to www.oc.edu/ricksteves.
