Mary Zalmanek founded Adventures of the Heart to help people in love
have new "best ever" days, year after year. Yes, even if you've been together
for ages and the spark has fizzled, you can heat things up.
If you're in a new relationship, Mary wants to make sure things never get
dull.
In 1997,
after friends and even a few strangers asked for help staging the type of
celebrations that had become the hallmark of Mary's long and successful
marriage, she turned her passion
for romance into a business called Adventures of the Heart. Mary is the author
of the award-winning The
Art of the Spark: 12 Habits to Inspire Romantic Adventures.

Bucket
List
Two goals on Mary's "bucket list"
were to visit Costa
Rica and ride the Great Divide Mountain Bike
Trail. Mary and her husband Jim
jumped at the chance when friends asked them to run their bed and
breakfast in the Costa Rican rainforest for two months. Riding the Great Divide Trail
from Canada to
Mexico presented more challenges, but
they did it. Well, most of
it.
